= for assigning a value to a variable like var age = 20; == for comparing two variables whether they are of equal type === for comparing two variables whether they are strictly equal sample code: var age1= 20; //age1 is just a variable not object var age2 = new number(20); /* age2 is an object here as we used number constructor function using the keyword new */ alert(age1 == age2); // true alert(age1 === age2); //false hope this helps you

From what I've learned so far, I've only seen = and ===. = is used when you're using a variable to represent something, like a function, a string, etc (var firstName = Bob). === is used for comparing two data, like 3 === 3 (3 is equal to 3). I hope this helps.

example for == var a = "42"; // string var b = 42; // number if(a == b) // true in case of == the comparison is made between two values after the necessary conversion of values of either side from one data type to another. like in the above example ist a is converted into NUMBER from STRING data type and then the comparison occurs and result is true. but if we have used ===. operator then the result would have been false because this operator won't let convert the values of either side their data type. if(a===b) // false
