Hello JavaScript Geekies! Good day! In our tutorial today , we'll be discussing JavaScript Operators. Let us take a look at this example and we analyze it:
var x; // declare a variable xx = 5; // assign a value of 5 to x
The first line above declares a variable x, ready for assignment (to contain an item/data). The second line assigns 5 to x.
Analysis
5 is the data put in x, and "=" is called the assignment operator (used to assign a value to a variable).
Take a look at another example:
var x, y;x + y = 5;
In the example above, x and y are called Operands while + and = are called Operators.
Further Analysis
- + is called the Addition operator and it is one of the Arithmetic operators
- = is called the Assignment operator, used for ‘putting’ a value in a variable (container).
