Different between == and === operators in javascript

Dung Do Tien Feb 12 2020 201

I am a beginner in Javascript and I am studying about operators, I am searching on the internet and I see many people use === to compare two variables so I have two questions need to explain:

1. What is different between == and ===  operators in javascript?

2. Which should I use?

Thanks for all your suggestions

Have 1 answer(s) found.

  • When declaring a variable we have two parts they are data type and value

    var age = 18; // dataType = number, value = 18

    So == operator only compare value and === compare both value and datatype

    var age = 18; // dataType = number, value = 18
var myAge = "18"; // dataType = string, value = 18

age == myAge; // True
age === myAge // False
