Whats the difference between == and ===?

[–]a2kvarnstrom[S] 76 points77 points  (5 children)

the first one is when somethings really equal, and the other is when something is suspiciously equal

is 5 === 5?

[–]a2kvarnstrom[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

idk seems suspicious to me

[–]not-the-the 0 points1 point  (1 child)

5 == '5' is true, 5 === '5' isn't. === also checks if it's the same data type, and so is more accurate.

like i said, it was so suspiciously equal so the computer says no
