Using append with variables jQuery

I need to create a script element and append the google map function there.
I'm wondering: can I use a variable in my function via the append.

var center = lat: -34.397, lng: 150.644;

document.createElement("script").append(
function initMap()
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'),
center: center,
zoom: 8
);

);

.append(...) is only for a Node or a DOM string. Not for JS code.
https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/ParentNode/append

.append(...)

Why aren't you calling initMap() directly?
Like this:

var center = lat: -34.397, lng: 150.644;

function initMap() {
return new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'),
center: center,
zoom: 8
);

var map = initMap();

You can run script using this method. Because append only used for Node-s.

append

Node

function runScript(func)
var e = document.createElement('script');
e.innerHtml = func.toString();
document.head.appendChild(e);


runScript(function()
alert('okay');
);


You can run any js script using this method.

runScript(function()
map = new google.maps.Map(document.getElementById('map'),
center: center,
zoom: 8
);
);
