Basic JS

Cheatsheet

• Strings are immutable
• shift → removes first
• unshift → adds to first position
• if (condition) → condition needs a bracket

Equalities and Inequalities

//type conversion
1   ==  1   // true
1   ==  2   // false
1   == '1'  // true
"3" ==  3   // true

//strict equality
3 ===  3   // true
3 === '3'  // false

//inequality
3 !=  3   // false
3 != '3'  // false
4 !=  3   // true

//strict inequality
3 !==  3   // false
3 !== '3'  // true
4 !==  3   // true

//greater than
5   >  3   // true
7   > '3'  // true
2   >  3   // false
'1' >  9   // false

Checking if property exists

var myObj = {
  top: "hat",
  bottom: "pants"
};
myObj.hasOwnProperty("top");    // true
myObj.hasOwnProperty("middle"); // false

Generate random numbers

Math.floor(Math.random() * (max - min + 1)) + min
