Why is string = '0' not strictly equal to new String('0') in javascript

Question

Why does the creation of a string object not return true when compared strictly to a primitive string value?

var obj = new String('0');
var str = '0';

console.log(obj == str); //returns true
console.log(obj === str); //returns false

Answer 1

As obj type is object where str is string, Hence obj === str is false.

var obj = new String('0');
var str = '0';

console.log(typeof obj);
console.log(typeof str);
