I think this guide (pun intended) might be useful to use as a kind of reference for what the this keyword is defined as in different situations. Really getting familiar with it, as with all other coding habits, just means that you just need to use it often enough though :P

@Andy Oh by the way, in this particular situation, you could also add return color; to your function, and omit the new keyword. Then you can just get the color by just using the variable res.
