JavaScript Arithmetic with Boolean Values
the JavaScript code
console.log((true + true) * (true + true) - true * true); uses boolean values in arithmetic operations. In JavaScript, true is treated as 1 for these operations. Let's break down the code step by step:
- First part:
(true + true)trueis treated as1, sotrue + trueis1 + 1, which equals2.
- Second part:
(true + true) * (true + true)- we just fond that
true + trueis2. So, this becomes2 * 2, which equals4.
- we just fond that
- Third part:
true * true- Again,
trueis1, sotrue * trueis1 * 1, which equals1.
- Again,
- final calculation:
4 - 1- Subtracting
1from4gives3.
- Subtracting
so the output of the code is 3.
this happens because in JavaScript, true behaves like 1 when you use it in mathematical operations.
