What gets returned from the code
JavaScript automatically recognizes numbers
LEVEL ONE
Operators
10
Common Operators used in JavaScript Syntax:
> 6 + 4
12
> 3 * 4
4
> 9 - 5
3
> 12 / 4
addition subtraction
multiplication division
3
> 43 % 10
modulus
Modulus returns the
remainder after division.
LEVEL ONE
Order of Operations: PEMDAS

Grouping Expressions in JavaScript
> (5 + 7) * 3
12 * 3
9
> (3 * 4) + 3 - 12 / 2
12 + 3 - 12 / 2
12 + 3 - 6

Comparators
true
Common Number Comparators used in JavaScript Syntax:
> 6 > 4
false
> 3 == 4
false
> 9 < 5
true
> 12 != 4
greater than less than
equals not equals
boolean value
two equal signs!
the not symbol
true
greater or equal
> 8 >= -2
true
less or equal
> 10 <= 10
LEVEL ONE
Strings
How JavaScript stores and processes !at text
>

"Raindrops On Roses"
"Raindrops On Roses" + " And " + "Whiskers On Kittens"
>"Whiskers On Kittens"
"Raindrops On Roses" "Whiskers On Kittens"
"Raindrops On Roses And Whiskers On Kittens"
Plus will glue Strings together
Strings need quotes!
LEVEL ONE
These are a few of my favorite...Strings
Concatenation works with numbers and their expressions, too.
>"The meaning of life is " + 42
"The meaning of life is 42"
Notice the extra space!
>"The meaning of life is" + 42
"The meaning of life is42"
Uh oh...what happened?
Concatenation adds no
spaces, so we need to
add our own.
LEVEL ONE
These are a few of my favorite...Strings
Concatenation works with numbers and their expressions, too.
"Platform " + 9 + " and " + 3/4
"Platform 9 and 0.75"
Expressions get evaluated!
>
Make strings out of
expressions that you
want to see in their
original format.
"Platform " + 9 + " and 3/4" >
"Platform 9 and 3/4"
LEVEL ONE
Special characters inside Strings
Some characters need backslash notation in JavaScript Strings
>
>
advances to the next tab stop
"Flight #:\t921\t\tSeat:\t21C"
"Flight #: 921 Seat: 21C"
Adds a quotation mark but without
ending the string too early.
"Login Password:\t\t\"C3P0R2D2\""
"Login Password: "C3P0R2D2""

shifts the printout to a new line
"Origin\\Destination:\tOrlando(MCO)\\London(LHR)"
"Departure:\t09:55A\nArrival:\t14:55P"
"Origin\Destination: Orlando(MCO)\London(LHR)"
Places a backslash itself in the String
"Departure: 09:55A
Arrival: 14:55P"
LEVEL ONE
String Comparisons
Checking for matching strings and alphabetical ordering
>
>
"The Wright Brothers" == "Super Mario Brothers"
"The Wright Brothers" != "the wright brothers"
false
true
Case counts!
> "The Wright Brothers" == "The Wright Brothers"
true
Double equals will compare EXACT contents
Case counts!
Not equals returns true if there is a mismatch
LEVEL ONE
String Comparisons
The length of strings can be accessed with the .length property
28
>
Case counts!
"antidisestablishmentarianism".length
39
> "One Fish, Two Fish, Red Fish, Blue Fish".length
Spaces and any non-alphabetic
characters are counted, too!
