minus-squareTelemachus93@slrpnk.netlinkfedilinkarrow-up3·5 days agoIn other languages that shouldn’t be equal either though, right? Maybe you meant if (2){ console.log("nonzero ints are truthy") } else { console.log("no they're not") } Which would output nonzero ints are truthy and that would actually work in all languages I know. But that’s different from being equal.
