var parent = {
  name: 'Dad'

/* With ECMAScript 5, the prototypal inheritance pattern 
formally entered the language via Object.create() */

var child = Object.create(parent)

console.log(child.name)       // logs 'Dad'

var child = Object.create(parent, {
  //notice the value designation, which is an ECMA5 descriptor
  age: {value: 2}
});

console.log(child.age)    // logs 2

console.log(child.hasOwnProperty('name')); // logs false
console.log(child.hasOwnProperty('age'));  // logs true
