Operators

Short explanation

Operators compute values and include arithmetic, logical, comparison, and assignment operators. Operator precedence and associativity determine how complex expressions are evaluated.

Syntax example

const result = 1 + 2 * 3; // 7 due to precedence
const ok = (true && false) || true; // true

How JS handles it internally

The parser builds an AST reflecting operator precedence, then the evaluator executes nodes accordingly. Understanding precedence helps you write expressions without unnecessary parentheses.

FAQ

Q: How do I remember precedence?

A: Evaluate common cases and use parentheses to make intent explicit; rely on linters for clarity.
