When working with JavaScript, it's important to note that the language automatically converts types when necessary. For instance, if you have an expression like "8" * "3", JavaScript will convert the strings to numbers and calculate the result as 24. But what happens when comparing two different types in JavaScript? Which type gets converted first?
Consider this example:
When the string "true" is compared with the boolean true, one of them needs to be converted to the other type. The question is, does the "true" string get converted to a boolean true, which would return a boolean object, or does the boolean true convert to the "true" string?
In this case, my guess is that the "true" string is converted to a boolean true, making the statement false. But why is this the case? Is there a preference in type conversion that determines this outcome?
