In this example, you are passing two distinct numerical values into a constructor and then assigning the newly created object to wickedLocation:

var wickedLocation =  new google.maps.LatLng(44.767778, -93.2775);

In this example, you're passing a single string value into a constructor that requires two distinct numerical coordinates:

var wickedCoords = 44.767778, -93.2775;

var wickedLocation =  new google.maps.LatLng(wickedCoords);

The data types are both completely different.

With that said, if you want to represent a coordinate as a single object, you can do so like this:

var myHome = { lat : 44.767778 , long : -93.2775 };



var yourHome = { lat : 23,454545 , long : -92.12121 };

Then when you need to create the coords object from Google, you can pass the data in as individual arguments derived from a single object:

var wickedLocation =  new google.maps.LatLng( myHome.lat, myHome.long );
