How following code works?
var result = ["test"] == "test";
console.log(result); // returns true
I have tested in chrome and ["string"] == "string"` returns true.

1see what `["test"].toString()` results in ... then check out type coercion – Jaromanda X Oct 25 '17 at 10:13

1In most of case, when doing == comparison in JS, JS implicitly converts arguments to string and then compares them, thus ["test"].toString() == "test" – Oct 25 '17 at 10:15

@JaromandaX Thanks, It looked weird to me that this works :) – Hitesh Bhayani Oct 25 '17 at 10:16

@HiteshBhayani use `===` to get what you expected (avoid type coercion). – Walk Oct 25 '17 at 10:17
