We use string concatenations in JavaScript frequently. But if we look closely, it may raise a few new confusions. So, let’s begin.
What will be the output of 'a' + + 'b'
. aNaN
. It’s understandable, that something unexpected should come, as we’ve mis-typed an extra +
, but what it has to do with the NaN
. Why NaN
?
Now, what will be the output of 'a' + + 'b' + 'c'
. aNaNc
. Quite understandable. Right?
Now, tell me, what will be the output of 'a' + + 'b' + 2
. Obviously, aNaN2
. Correct.
But, what will be the output of 'a' + + 2
. Can you guess? Shockingly, but not so unexpectedly, it’s a2
. We know, there is some relation of string concatenations with numbers. So, 2
has absorbed the NaN
and hence the result. But what is the relation of string concatenation with Numbers
. I’m a little confused. But I’ll try to find the answer.
