In JavaScript, when one of the operands is undefined in a comparison operation, the result depends on the type of comparison being used:
Loose Equality (==):
- undefined == undefined evaluates to true.
- undefined == null evaluates to true (because null and undefined are considered loosely equal).
- undefined == <any other value> (such as a number, string, or boolean) evaluates to false.
Strict Equality (===):
- undefined === undefined evaluates to true.
- undefined === null evaluates to false (because they are different types).
- undefined === <any other value> (such as a number, string, or boolean) evaluates to false.
Comparison Operators (<, >, <=, >=):
- When using comparison operators with undefined, JavaScript converts undefined to NaN (Not-a-Number).
- Any comparison with NaN (except !== and ===) will always return false.
- For example, undefined < 5 or undefined > 5 will return false.
Examples:
console.log(undefined == undefined); // true
console.log(undefined == null); // true
console.log(undefined === undefined); // true
console.log(undefined === null); // false
console.log(undefined < 5); // false
console.log(undefined > 5); // false
