# Javascript Data types
# Primitives
- string
- number
- boolean
- null
- undefined
- symbol
# Objects
All other types are called primitive because their values can contain only a single thing (be it a string or a number or whatever). In contrast, objects are used to store collections of data and more complex entities.
# Symbols
The symbol type is used to create unique identifiers for objects.
typeof Symbol("id") // "symbol"
Symbol('id') === Symbol('id'); // false
# Falsy values
- false
- null
- 0
- ""
- undefined
- NaN
# Truthy values
All values are truthy unless they are defined as falsy
