How to Create a Beep Sound in JavaScript?

You can create a beep sound in JavaScript using the Audio object. Here’s an example of how to do this:

function beep() {
  const audio = new Audio('beep.mp3');
  audio.play();
}

In this example, a new Audio object is created with a path to an audio file, in this case a file named beep.mp3. The play method is then called on the Audio object to play the sound.

You can also use the AudioContext API to generate audio programmatically, but it is more complex than using the Audio object. Here’s an example of how to use the AudioContext API to create a beep sound:

function beep() {
  const context = new (window.AudioContext || window.webkitAudioContext)();
  const oscillator = context.createOscillator();
  oscillator.type = 'sine';
  oscillator.frequency.value = 440;
  oscillator.connect(context.destination);
  oscillator.start();
  oscillator.stop(context.currentTime + 0.5);
}

In this example, a new AudioContext object is created, and a OscillatorNode is created using the createOscillator method. The type property is set to 'sine' to generate a sine wave, and the frequency is set to 440 Hz. The oscillator is then connected to the audio destination and started. The stop method is called after 0.5 seconds to stop the sound.
