JavaScript三等于和三变量比较

Question

Can somebody explain this?

1 == 1        //true, as expected
1 === 1       //true, as expected
1 == 1 == 1   //true, as expected
1 == 1 == 2   //false, as expected
1 === 1 === 2 //false, as expected
1 === 1 === 1 //false? <--

Also is there a name for boolean logic that compares more than two numbers in this way (I called it "three-variable comparison" but I think that'd be wrong...)

Answer 1

This expression:

1 === 1 === 1

Is evaluated as:

(1 === 1) === 1

After evaluating the expression inside parentheses:

true === 1

And that expression is logically false. The below expression returns true as expected though:

1 === 1 === true

Answer 2

Equality is a left-to-right precedence operation .

So:

1 == 1 == 1
true == 1
true

And:

1 === 1 === 1
true === 1
false // because triple-equals checks type as well
