Expert Solution
Step 1

An immediately-invoked function expression immediately calls a function. So the function is executed immediately after the completion of the definition.

For example: (function() {  console.log('Welcome to the Internet. Please follow me.'); }());

Answer 1: False. The given function is not immediately invoked.

Assigning a variable to a function copies the reference to the function. By putting the parenthesis at the end of a function name, calls the function, returning the functions return value.

Answer 2: True. Since a function can return another function in Javascript.
