// NaN means "Not a Number", however the type of NaN is a "number" | |
var a = 'abc' * 2; // NaN | |
typeof a; // number | |
typeof a === 'number'; true | |
// NaN means "invalid number" | |
// All operations on NaN also returns NaN | |
NaN * 2; // NaN | |
NaN * 'abc'; // NaN | |
// NaN is the only value which cannot be equal to NaN | |
NaN == NaN; // false | |
NaN === NaN; // false | |
// This is clearly defiend in the spec. https://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/9.0/index.html#sec-strict-equality-comparison | |

// There is also Infinity to represent the Infinity. | |
// You can get Infinity by number / 0 => Infinity | |
// Negative infinity is negative number / 0 => -Infinity | |
Infinity + 3; // Infinity | |
Infinity * 3; // Infinity | |
Infinity / 3; // Infinity | |
Infinity - Infinity; // NaN Since we cannot represent that as a number! | |
Infinity / Infinity; // NaN Since we cannot represent that as a number! | |
// There is also positive and negative 0. | |
0 / 3; // 0 | |
0 / -3; // -0 | |
0 * -3; // -0 | |
// Why is negative 0 necessary? | |
// The number can mean another piece of information such that speed. And in such case, the sign means which direction they are moving. So if we remove the sign on 0, it loses the such information which all the other value have. |
