How to use Strictly Equality(===) operator In Javascript

JavaScript Strict Equality Operator is used to compare two operands and return true if both the value and type of operands are the same. to convert NaN into zero using the === operator first comparing NaN value with zero if the comparison is successful NaN is returned, otherwise, zero is returned.
