this is the language we were given on the web, not the language we chose
The what?? Is it a condition?
Now I’d love to see a Perl monk comic!
I can’t test it right now but I would love to know. Is it true?
typeof x === "undefined"
is true.Then the bastard tries to willingly access
x
to equate it toundefined
, but that can’t work sincex
is undefined and yields aReferenceError
(rendering the third expression moot).The monks answers of document.all is not applicable since
document.all
is a live set of data which can be nothing or everything.Who even introduced
document.all
? I bet it was microsoft…No, it’s undefined
Seems to be so, see Exceptional behavior of document.all
Although document.all is also falsy and loosely equal to undefined, it is not undefined. The case of document.all having type “undefined” is classified in the web standards as a “willful violation” of the original ECMAScript standard for web compatibility.
