Challenge Returning Boolean Values from Functions
You may recall from Comparison with the Equality Operator that all comparison operators return a boolean true
or false
value.
A common anti-pattern
is to use an if/else
statement to do a comparison and then return true/false
:
function isEqual(a,b) {
if(a === b) {
return true;
} else {
return false;
}
}
Since ===
returns true
or false
, we can simply return the result of the comparison:
function isEqual(a,b) {
return a === b;
}
