According to what I've read, all numbers in JavaScript are saved as floats except array indexes and the operands of bitwise operations.
Because all floats have a sign bit -0 === 0 should evaluate to false. However it evaluates to true.

They are different, but they evaluate to true because the spec for how numbers work says, in no uncertain terms, that's what should happen. – ssube May 03 '16 at 19:55
