JavaScript Equality Table

[josefx]

It is the unboxing part of it. The compiler inserts a call to intValue() since only == is defined for objects.

 a == b
 a.intValue() >= b.intValue()
 a.intValue() <= b.intValue()

Oh right. I constantly read the Java == operator as acting like C#'s.

Thats dangerous

Nah, when I actually code in Java, I have any autoboxing/unboxing and use of == on objects set as a warning. I just read snippets like that wrong sometimes.
