🔷 About Javascript Type conversion in brief ↓

A Thread 🧵 :

It is exactly what the name states, conversion of one type to other.

: string to integer
: integer to string etc.

Javascript allows us to do the same with some easy functions.

As we know, there are 3 main primitive data types in Javascript namely:

These are the methods mainly used:

There is a concept called Operator Precedence.

Different operators have different precedence and javascript doesn't treat each operator as the same!

So what exactly is the order?

1. () = has the most important precedence in JS
2. . = the dot operator has the 2nd most
3. []
4. ?. = if else bracing
5. new = with arguments and then without arguments!

I believe in learning by actually coding and not only reading.

Want all these code snippets and readymade code to work on?
