No headers- Arithmetic Operators
-
(
+,-,*,/,%,++,--, unary-, unary +)Arithmetic operators take numerical values (either literals or variables) as their operands and return a single numerical value.
- Assignment Operators
-
(
=, *=, /=, %=, +=, -=, <<=, >>=, >>>=, &=, ^=, |=)An assignment operator assigns a value to its left operand based on the value of its right operand.
- Bitwise Operators
-
(
&,|,^,~,<<,>>,>>>)Bitwise operators treat their operands as a set of 32 bits (zeros and ones) and return standard JavaScript numerical values.
- Comparison Operators
-
(
==,!=,===,!==,>,>=,<,<=)A comparison operator compares its operands and returns a logical value based on whether the comparison is true.
- Logical Operators
-
(
&&,||,!)Logical operators are typically used with boolean (logical) values, and when they are, they return a boolean value.
- String Operators
-
(
+and+=)The string operators concatenate two string values together, returning another string that is the union of the two strings.
- Member Operators
-
(
object.propertyandobject["property"])Member operators provide access to a property or method of an object.
- Special Operators
- There are several special operators that do not fit into any other category:
-
- Conditional Operator
-
(
condition ? ifTrue : ifFalse)The conditional operator returns one of two values based on the logical value of the condition.
- Comma Operator
-
(
,)The comma operator allows multiple expressions to be evaluated in a single statement and returns the result of the last expression.
- delete Operator
-
(
delete)The delete operator deletes objects.
- function Operator
-
(
function)The function operator defines a function.
- get Operator
-
(
get)The get operator defines a property to be a getter.
- in Operator
-
(
in)The in operator determines whether an object has a given property.
- instanceof Operator
-
(
instanceof)The instanceof operator determines whether an object is an instance of another object.
- let Operator
-
(
let)The let operator temporarily assigns a value to a variable that only effects an expression.
- new Operator
-
(
new)The new operator creates an instance of a constructor.
- set Operator
-
(
set)The set operator defines a property to be a setter.
- this Operator
-
(
this)The this operator refers to the execution context.
- typeof Operator
-
(
typeof)The typeof operator determines the type of a given object.
- void Operator
-
(
void)The void operator discards an expressions return value.
- yield Operator
-
(
yield)The yield operator determines what is returned in a generator by that generator's iterator.
- Operator Precedence
- Operator precedence defines the order in which operators are evaluated.
