JS constructor not workning

Question

I have followed this answer to create a JS constructor:

function ObjectOne(value) {
  var myVal = value;
}

function ObjectTwo(val) {
  this.val = val;
}

And i want to access that variable like this: new ObjectOne("asdf").myVal but that doesn't work (returns undefined)

EDIT: IM RETARDED

There was typo in ObejctOne and ObjectTwo, (ill bury myself deep)

Variables declared with var in the constructor are private variables that can't be accessed from outside the constructor.

To get the value of that variable, you'll have to provide a getter method:

function ObjectOne(value) {
    var myVal = value;
    this.getMyVal () {
        return myVal;
    }
}
