Why JavaScript return false in this case?

Question

var a = 10; b = 20; c = 30;

console.log( c > b > a) //false

Answer 1

Associativity for > operator in JS is left to right.

c > b > a

is evaluated as

(c > b) > a
(30 > 20) > 10
true > 10

JS converts true to 1 and executes comparison

1 > 10
false

Answer 3

Hatsy Rei i understand your explanation. I recently had a problem like this in python. Is there a way we can do this?

I want a user to input an integer n, between 2 to 5 and output a string if the input is even.

Tried doing this
if n % 2 == 0 and 2 == n <= 5:
print ("Not Weird")
.....
Didn't work. I tried another way and got it.

Sorry for the long story but is there a way we can write this an one expression instead of two?
