How do you create an array in JavaScript?

Back

let arr = [1, 2, 3];

Answer explanation

In JavaScript, arrays are created using square brackets. The correct syntax is 'let arr = [1, 2, 3];'. The other options either use incorrect syntax or data types that do not define an array.

Front

What operator is used to compare both value and type in JavaScript?

Back

===

Answer explanation

The operator '===' is used in JavaScript to compare both value and type, ensuring that the operands are identical in both aspects. Unlike '==' which performs type coercion, '===' checks for strict equality.

Front

What will be the result of true && false?

Back

false

Answer explanation

In a logical AND operation (&&), the result is true only if both operands are true. Since one operand is false, the overall result is false.

Front

Which statement is used to skip the current iteration in a loop? Options: break, skip, continue, return

Back

continue

Answer explanation

The 'continue' statement is used in loops to skip the current iteration and proceed to the next one. In contrast, 'break' exits the loop, 'return' exits a function, and 'skip' is not a valid statement.

Front

How can you add a comment in JavaScript?

In JavaScript, comments are added using '//' for single-line comments. The other options are incorrect: '' is for HTML comments, '** **' is not a valid syntax, and '#' is used in languages like Python.

Front

What is the output of the above code?

Back

"105"

Answer explanation

In JavaScript, when you use the + operator with a string and a number, the number is converted to a string. Here, '10' (string) + 5 (number) results in '10' + '5', which gives '105' (string). Thus, the output is '105'.
