toggling variable inside Module Pattern using function declaration vs function expression

design-patterns function-declaration function-expression javascript module-pattern

I have a module pattern with a variable setting the currentPlayer to 1. I use a function expression to toggle that variable If I run game.currentPlayer it logs 1, I then run game.toggleCurrentPlayer(), and it doesn’t change currentPlayer as intended, it still returns 1. However, changing the toggleCurrentPlayer() function using this, seems to be able to change the variable successfully
