JavaScript String Operators are used to manipulate and perform operations on strings. There are two operators which are used to modify strings in JavaScript. These operators help us to join one string to another string.
1. Concatenate OperatorConcatenate Operator in JavaScript combines strings using the '+' operator and creates a new string.
JavaScript
let s1 = "Geeks";
let s2 = "forGeeks";
let res = (s1 + s2);
console.log(res);
2. Concatenate Assignment Operator
We can modify one string by adding content of another one to it.
JavaScript
let s1 = "Geeks";
let s2 = "forGeeks";
s1 += s2;
console.log(s1);
3. Comparison Operators
Equality (==) : Checks if two strings are equal (ignoring type).
JavaScript
let s1 = "gfg";
let s2 = "gfg";
console.log(s1 == s2);
Here is an example to show that type checking is ignored.
JavaScript
let s1 = "gfg"; // Primitive Type
let s2 = new String("gfg"); // Object type
console.log(s1 == s2);
Strict Equality (===
) : Checks if two strings are equal in value and type both.
let s1 = "gfg"; // Primitive Type
let s2 = new String("gfg"); // Object type
console.log(s1 === s2); // false
Inequality (!=) : Checks if two strings are not equal (ignoring type).
JavaScript
let s1 = "gfg";
let s2 = "ggg";
console.log(s1 != s2);
Here is an example to show that type checking is ignored.
JavaScript
let s1 = "gfg"; // Primitive Type
let s2 = new String("ggg"); // Object type
console.log(s1 != s2);
Strict Inequality (!==
) : Checks if two strings are equal in value and type both.
let s1 = "gfg"; // Primitive Type
let s2 = new String("ggg"); // Object type
console.log(s1 !== s2);
Lexicographical Comparison (<
, >
, <=
, >=
): Compares strings based on Unicode values.
let s1 = "age";
let s2 = "bat";
console.log(s1 < s2); // true
console.log(s1 > s2); // false
console.log(s1 <= s2); // true
console.log(s1 >= s2); // false
true false true false
