Truthy and Falsy Values

PRO
Outline

JavaScript has a concept of truthy and falsy values. These are values that behave as either or true or false, but aren't necessarily of the boolean type.

Examples of falsy values are:

  • false
  • 0
  • '' or "" (empty string)
  • null
  • undefined
  • NaN

Examples of truthy values are:

  • Basically everything else
  • true
  • '0'
  • 'false'
  • []
  • {}
  • function () {} (empty function)
  • Most numbers, like 1 or 2 or 100 for example
  • Strings that aren't empty
