Javascript array equal to zero but not itself

Question

I've been playing around with arrays in JavaScript and cannot figure out why this happens:

console.log(0 == 0)
//true

console.log([] == 0)
//true

console.log(0 == [])
//true

console.log([] == [])
//false

console.log([] == ![])
// true

The empty array is equal enough to zero both left and right, but why isn't it equal to itself?

I realise that comparing two objects would not result true, but why are they coerced to 0 (or falsy, which shouldn't be the case) if you compare them to 0, while threated as an object if you compare them to the other array?

Answer 1

console.log(0 == [])
//true 

You are trying to compare object with an integer, so your object is implicitly typecasted to equivalent integer value that is 0

console.log([] == [])
//false 

as two objects are never equal
