Re: [Flashcoders] small code question
But why not? In the first example you say in the first line myVar = new Number(); But not more, only that it is a number e.g not a string or a bolean. Than in the second line you say myVar = 0; So you give it a Number. In the second example you do it in one way you say hey the variable myVar is a number and is a 0. See you Toon Van de Putte schrieb: I was wondering if the following two lines of code are just different ways of doing the same thing: var myVar = new Number(); myVar =0; var myVar= Number(0); -- Toon Van de Putte Pannenhuisstraat 63 2500 Lier Belgium mobile: +32 (0)497 52 74 51 [EMAIL PROTECTED] ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders ___ Flashcoders mailing list Flashcoders@chattyfig.figleaf.com http://chattyfig.figleaf.com/mailman/listinfo/flashcoders
