Can anyone explain me this Javascript output?

Question

console.log("2" < "12') // false

Answer 1

Because "2" and "12" are both string,

When comparing string,

the charcodes of first characters are compared first

because the charcode of "2" is larger than the charcode of "1",

so "2" < "12" is false.
