+ 2

var x="2"+4+5; document.write(x); output is 245. But how??

2 should be treated as a string and 4+5 should be added and the output should be 29 but it's 245 how 😥?

Expressions in JavaScript are evaluated from left to right (this is known as associativity) Thus when a string is encountered first by the compiler, it converts the whole expression into a string. Hence your output is 245. To perform addition first, you must enclose 4+5 in brackets, like this var x = "2" + (4+5); Now JavaScript first evaluated the bracket, thus output will be 29, on printing the variable x
