JavaScript Operators - Comparison Operators

In this tutorial, you will learn how to use JavaScript comparison operators to compare two values.

Introduction to JavaScript comparison operators

To compare two values, you use the comparison operators. The following table illustrates the JavaScript comparison operators:

A comparison operator returns a Boolean value indicating that the comparison is true or not. See the following example:

let r1 = 20 > 10; // true
let r2 = 20 < 10; // false
let r3 = 10 == 10; // true

The comparison operator takes at least two values (or operands). If one of the two values has a different type, JavaScript will perform a conversion based on specific rules before comparing them. We will discuss each rule in detail in the following sections.

Comparing numbers

If the operands are numbers, JavaScript will perform a numeric comparison. For example:

let a = 10, 
    b = 20; 
console.log(a >= b);  // false
console.log(a == 10); // true

This example is straightforward. the variable a is 10, b is 20. The a>=b expression returns and a==10 expression returns true.

Comparing strings

If the operands are strings, JavaScript compares the character codes numerically one by one in the string.

let name1 = 'alice',
    name2 = 'bob';    
let result = name1 < name2;
console.log(result); // true
console.log(name1 == 'alice'); // true

Because JavaScript compares character codes in the strings numerically, you may receive an unexpected result, for example:

let f1 = 'apple',
    f2 = 'Banana';
let result = f2 < f1;
console.log(result); // true

In this example, f2 is less than f1 because the letter B has the character code 66 while the letter a has the character code 97.

To fix this, you must first convert strings into a common format, either lowercase or uppercase and then perform comparison as follows:

let result2 = f2.toLowerCase() < f1.toLowerCase();
console.log(result2); // false

Note that the toLowerCase() is a method of the String object that converts the string itself to lowercase.

JavaScript compound assignment operators

JavaScript is unarguablly one of the most common things you’ll learn when you start programming for the web. Here’s a small post on JavaScript compound assignment operators and how we use them.

The compound assignment operators consist of a binary operator and the simple assignment operator.

The binary operators, work with two operands. For example a+b where + is the operator and the a, b are operands. Simple assignment operator is used to assign values to a variable(s).

It’s quite common to modify values stored in variables. To make this process a little quicker, we use compound assignment operators.

They are:

• +=
• -+
• *=
• /=

You can also check my video tutorial compound assignment operators.

Let’s consider an example. Suppose price = 5 and we want to add ten more to it.

var price = 5;
price = price + 10;

We added ten to price. Look at the repetitive price variable. We could easily use a compound += to reduce this. We do this instead.

price += 5;

Awesome. Isn’t it? What’s the value of price now? Practice and comment below. If you don’t know how to practice check these lessons.

Lets bring down the price by 5 again and display it.
We use console.log command to display what is stored in the variable. It is very help for debugging.
Debugging let’s you find errors or bugs in your code. More on this later.

price -= 5;
console.log(price);

Lets multiply price and show it.

price *=5;
console.log(price);

and finally we will divide it.

price /=5;
console.log(price);

If you have any doubts, comment below.

What is JavaScript - Stackfindover - Blog

Who invented JavaScript, how it works, as we have given information about Programming language in our previous article ( What is PHP ), but today we will talk about what is JavaScript, why JavaScript is used The Answers to all such questions and much other information about JavaScript, you are going to get here today. Hope this information will work for you.

Who invented JavaScript?

JavaScript language was invented by Brendan Eich in 1995. JavaScript is inspired by Java Programming Language. The first name of JavaScript was Mocha which was named by Marc Andreessen, Marc Andreessen is the founder of Netscape and in the same year Mocha was renamed LiveScript, and later in December 1995, it was renamed JavaScript which is still in trend.

What is JavaScript?

JavaScript is a client-side scripting language used with HTML (Hypertext Markup Language). JavaScript is an Interpreted / Oriented language called JS in programming language JavaScript code can be run on any normal web browser. To run the code of JavaScript, we have to enable JavaScript of Web Browser. But some web browsers already have JavaScript enabled.

Today almost all websites are using it as web technology, mind is that there is maximum scope in JavaScript in the coming time, so if you want to become a programmer, then you can be very beneficial to learn JavaScript.

JavaScript Hello World Program

In JavaScript, ‘document.write‘ is used to represent a string on a browser.

<script type="text/javascript">
	document.write("Hello World!");
</script>

How to comment JavaScript code?

• For single line comment in JavaScript we have to use // (double slashes)
• For multiple line comments we have to use / * – – * /

<script type="text/javascript">

//single line comment

/* document.write("Hello"); */

</script>

Ternary operator in Python?

1. Ternary Operator in Python

What is a ternary operator: The ternary operator is a conditional expression that means this is a comparison operator and results come on a true or false condition and it is the shortest way to writing an if-else statement. It is a condition in a single line replacing the multiline if-else code.

syntax : condition ? value_if_true : value_if_false

condition: A boolean expression evaluates true or false

value_if_true: a value to be assigned if the expression is evaluated to true.

value_if_false: A value to be assigned if the expression is evaluated to false.

How to use ternary operator in python here are some examples of Python ternary operator if-else.

Brief description of examples we have to take two variables a and b. The value of a is 10 and b is 20. find the minimum number using a ternary operator with one line of code. ( **min = a if a < b else b ) **. if a less than b then print a otherwise print b and second examples are the same as first and the third example is check number is even or odd.
