JavaScript operators table.


An operator is used to transform one (unary) or two (binary) values into a single resultant value. The values are the operands. The combination of the operator and its operands is the expression.


For basic examples start from JavaScript: Basics


Also see JavaScript: Strings and JavaScript: Maths for further examples and expressions.


Operator Precedence Associativity Type of operand Brief description
. 15 left-to-right object access a property or method (dot notation)
[] 15 left-to-right array array indexing
() 15 left-to-right function arguments calls to a function
new 15 right-to-left call to object constructor creates a new object
++ 14 right-to-left value increment
-- 14 right-to-left value decrement
- 14 right-to-left number unary minus or negative number
+ 14 right-to-left number unary plus or positive number
! 14 right-to-left boolean logical NOT
typeof 14 right-to-left any type returns data type
delete 14 right-to-left value deletes a custom object property, method, or array element
void 14 right-to-left any type returns 'undefined' value
* 13 left-to-right numbers multiplication
/ 13 left-to-right numbers division
% 13 left-to-right numbers modulus
+ 12 left-to-right numbers addition
- 12 left-to-right numbers subtraction
+ 12 left-to-right strings concatenation
< 10 left-to-right numbers, strings less than
<= 10 left-to-right numbers, strings less than or equal to
> 10 left-to-right numbers, strings greater than
>= 10 left-to-right numbers, strings greater than or equal to
== 9 left-to-right any type test for equality
!= 9 left-to-right any type test for inequality
&& 5 left-to-right booleans logical AND
|| 4 left-to-right booleans logical OR
= 2 right-to-left value, any type assignment
+= 2 right-to-left value, any type operation and assignment, example:

sVar+=tVar

is equivalent to:
