Is there a way in Javascript to make strict comparison operations other than the one allowed with '===', i.e., a strict '<', '>', '<=' and '>='?
The code below using '<' performs a weak operation between a string and an integer. I would like to know if this could be achieved as done with '==='.
let a = '9';
let b = 10;
if (a < b) {
console.log('Success');
} // Prints 'Success'
Thanks!
No, there is no such set of operators. Also they would violate the usual expectation that (a < b) != (a >= b)
/ (a <= b) != (a > b)
1.
Of course you can build this yourself by writing
if (typeof a == typeof b && a < b) …
1: this expectation doesn't actually hold for the normal operators either, there are values like NaN
that violate it.
