    function Test()
    {
        this.name = 'test name';
    
    }
    

console.log(Test.prototype.constructor.prototype.constructor);

I can't understand why is this a infinite chain of constructor constructor - prototypeprototype?

I mean which are the purpose of this chain and why there is no end, the prototype has a constructor and the constructor has a prototype, its a loop-chain, and the constructor everytime is the same, can't imagine...

    function Test()
    {
        this.name = 'test name';
    
    }
    

console.log(Test.prototype.constructor.prototype.constructor);

I can't understand why is this a infinite chain of constructor - prototype?

function Test()
{
    this.name = 'test name';
}
    

console.log(Test.prototype.constructor.prototype.constructor);

I can't understand why is this a infinite chain of constructor - prototype?
