I'm using JSLint to go through JavaScript, and it's returning many suggestions to replace == (two equals signs) with === (three equals signs) when doing things like comparing idSele_UNVEHtype.value.
Novice JavaScript developers need to know that the "not not" operator is using implicitly the original loose comparison method instead of the exact === or !== operators and also the hidden cast operation that is happening behind the scenes and I show it in the example I provide.
What does $ {} (dollar sign and curly braces) mean in a string in JavaScript? Asked 9 years, 9 months ago Modified 1 year, 11 months ago Viewed 425k times
Javascript does have types; and in any case, how is the dollar sign even related to that? It's just a character that happens to be a legal identifier in Javascript.
27 It's a little hard to google when all you have are symbols ;) The terms to use are "JavaScript conditional operator". If you see any more funny symbols in JavaScript, you should try looking up JavaScript's operators first: Mozilla Developer Center's list of operators. The one exception you're likely to encounter is the $ symbol.
JavaScript allows upper- and lower-case letters (in a wide variety of scripts, not just English), numbers (but not at the first character), $, _, and others.¹ Prototype, jQuery, and most javascript libraries use the $ as the primary base object (or function).
A valid JavaScript identifier shuold must start with a letter, underscore (_), or dollar sign ($); subsequent characters can also be digits (0-9). Because JavaScript is case sensitive, letters include the characters "A" through "Z" (uppercase) and the characters "a" through "z" (lowercase).
In JavaScript there are 7 primitive types: undefined, null, boolean, string, number, bigint and symbol. Everything else is an object. The primitive types boolean, string and number can be wrapped by their object counterparts. These objects are instances of the Boolean, String and Number constructors respectively.
