==
) and the strict equality operator (===
). Let's do a quick review and practice using these operators some more.
If the values being compared are not of the same type, the equality operator will perform a type conversion, and then evaluate the values. However, the strict equality operator will compare both the data type and value as-is, without converting one type to the other.
Examples
```js
3 == '3' // returns true because JavaScript performs type conversion from string to number
3 === '3' // returns false because the types are different and type conversion is not performed
```
Notetypeof
operator, as follows:
```js
typeof 3 // returns 'number'
typeof '3' // returns 'string'
```
compareEquality
function in the editor compares two values using the equality operator. Modify the function so that it returns "Equal" only when the values are strictly equal.
compareEquality(10, "10")
should return "Not Equal"
testString: assert(compareEquality(10, "10") === "Not Equal");
- text: compareEquality("20", 20)
should return "Not Equal"
testString: assert(compareEquality("20", 20) === "Not Equal");
- text: You should use the ===
operator
testString: assert(code.match(/===/g));
```
