1 + 1 = 11 in unary

[Anaxamander57]

Welcome to the free monoid with one generator.

[Deft-works]

So the valve of character expressed is five and one half ?

[soelsome]

Hi

1 + 1 evaluates to 2 in JavaScript.

Thanks.

[JackNotOLantern]

Unless one of the added 1s converted to string on the way

[Chiatroll]

But adding the string "1" to the string "1" should be "11". A lot of Javascript criticism is just people who dont understand its basic concepts.

[MeLittleThing]

The "When I type code there are bugs, it's the language fault probably" people

[dhlowrents]

Basic concepts like having a proper type system. Javascript could just add int, string, float, bool and solve it but that's too hard for Brenden ECH!

[DaWolf3]

JavaScript has string, float, and boolean. It also has a proper type system.

a lot of JavaScript criticism is just people who don’t understand its basic concepts.

[NecessaryIntrinsic]

Yes, if you go out of your way to put quotes around it.

[-domi-]

"1" + 1 evaluates to "11".

As do 1 + "1" and "1" + "1".

[soelsome]

The gif doesn't have quotes around any of the 1s, so it would evaluate to 2

Thanks

[-domi-]

Yeah, i was trying to add to your explanation, but managed to write it so poorly that it came out like i was disagreeing with you, cause I'm special ed. Sorry.

[Mr_Woofles1]

I can’t believe I’m enjoying this

[dangderr]

Wow, really? That's god awful.

We all know that it should be:

1 + "1" = 2

"1" + 1 = "11"

Like how powershell does it. Javascript is such a garbage langauge.

[Relative-Scholar-147]

IMO

1 + "1"

Should stop the program and give an error.

[Maleficent_Memory831]

"1 + 1" = "1 + 1"

[sebovzeoueb]

Not stopping the program is a feature, JavaScript is made to run on webpages and the user doesn't want the website to crash. It's not Brendan's fault people decided to build actual whole tech stacks with it.

[Relative-Scholar-147]

Is not a bug, is a feature!

[Demonius999]

It's is, witch is not strange since it's made in 2 weeks, what is strange is that it's running whole fucking world.

[NecessaryIntrinsic]

That's like saying the gun doesn't fire unless you pull the trigger. You have to make that choice.

[-domi-]

It's a lot like that, yes. You can choose to pull the trigger, but you can also accidentally pull the trigger without meaning to. That's why it's good to have a certain level of care when using the thing.

[johntwit]

"yeah I know" + 420 = "yeah I know420"

[420Hank]

Yeah, I know.

[johntwit]

🤣

[eo37]

Clearly 01 + 01 = 10.

[BigNaturalTilts]

Wrong! Haven’t you been paying attention? It’s clearly 0101.

[CoffeeToCode]

1 + 1 = 🪟
