Sane practice #

• Try to use strict comparison operators as much as possible, and avoid coerced comparison operators.

• Loose comparison operators make code difficult to anticipate, hinder understanding and can be a source of very painful bugs.

• Strict equal - true if types and values are same, else false.

• Loose equal - true if coerced values are equal, else false.

• Loose unequal - false if coerced values are equal.

• Strict unequal - true if coerced values or types are different.
