Introduction:

"strings" are anything wrapped in speech marks, whether that be a number, a text.

let a = "Justin"

"string"

let a = Justin

undefined

let a = "3.14"

"string"

let a = 3.14

Number

let a = "true"

"string"

let a = true

Boolean


"strings" can be enclosed using "", '', or template literals (``).


As template literals offer more flexibility in writing code (things like \n (escape to new line) or \t (escape to new tab) are not needed), this is what this website employs.


However, for the record, here are the list of escapes:

\n

New line

\t

New tab

\v

New vertical tab

\0

New nul

\b

New back space

\f

New form feed

\r

New carriage return

\'

New single quote

\"

New double quote

\\

New backslash
