What is Type Coercion in JavaScript?

Answer»

The term type coercion refers to the PROCESS of converting VALUES from one data type to another, either automatically or implicitly. For instance, you could convert a NUMBER to a string, a string to a number, or a boolean to a number, etc.

Example: Number to String Conversion

<script> // The Number 5 is converted to // string '5' and then '+' // concatenates both strings const VALUE1 = 5; const value2 = '50'; var x = value1 + value2; document.write(x);</script>

Output: 

550

The above example SHOWS how JavaScript converted the number 5 into a string and concatenate the values together, resulting in 550.
