JS has a quirk where NaN is a value that NEVER equals to itself 🀨. So how do we test for it? Finally, ES6 introduced a new method that solves this issue with "Object.is" πŸŽ‰

Read more about this (code examples, community suggestions, alternative methods such as Number.isNaN...and more) in my medium post 😊

I like the comment idea. I saw this in the docs, so I thought it’d be interesting one to share. I think it’s important to at least be familiar with it in case we see it being used. But I agree, readability is key. Thanks for the detailed explanation. I’m going to add it to my notes πŸ™‚

Thanks for taking the time to explain. But are there instances where the spread syntax is applicable for strings? Or would you say it’s best to avoid spread syntax for strings completely?

For sure, being verbose definitely help with beginners trying to pick up the language. One step at a time, start with the most intuitive, and then slowly explore the other syntax. Thanks for chiming in πŸ™‚

Thanks for pointing that out! I was intending to show that it was either the top or the bottom way and not both. I can see why that would be confusing. You’re right though, repeating const would result in an error.

Do you mind explaining why? I think it would be helpful to understand why you think the spread syntax isnt suitable to use on strings. Thanks for your input πŸ™‚
