Provides a reference to the function that created the arguments object. This property provides the essential reference to the current function, which an anonymous function would require for it to be called in a recursive construction.

Example

myObj.doThis = function(input) { // function statements that act on parameter value if (!someCondition) { arguments.callee(input); } }

Value
Function object reference.
