A JScript expression is a combination of keywords, operators, variables, and literals that yield a value. An expression can perform a calculation, manipulate data, call a function, test data, or perform other operations.
Using Expressions
The simplest expressions are literals. Here are some examples of JScript literal expressions. For more information, see Data in JScript.
| В |  Copy Code |
|---|---|
3.9 // numeric literal
"Hello!" // string literal
false // Boolean literal
null // literal null value
[1,2,3] // Array literal
var o = {x:1, y:2} // Object literal
var f = function(x){return x*x;} // function literal | |
Expressions that are more complicated can contain variables, function calls, and other expressions. You can use operators to combine expressions and create complex expressions. Examples of using operators are:

|---|---|
4 + 5 // additon x += 1 // addition assignment 10 / 2 // division a & b // bitwise AND | |
Here are some examples of JScript complex expressions.
| В | Copy Code |
|---|---|
radius = 10;
anExpression = 3 * (4 / 5) + 6;
aSecondExpression = Math.PI * radius * radius;
aThirdExpression = "Area is " + aSecondExpression + ".";
myArray = new Array("hello", Math.PI, 42);
myPi = myArray[1]; | |
