Introduction

An expression produces a value. Arithmetic operators combine numbers, and comparison operators answer questions. Parentheses make the intended order explicit and help the reader follow a calculation.

Syntax & example

const total = (12 + 8) * 2;
console.log(total);

Expected output

40

Common mistakes

  • Using a variable before assigning a value to it.
  • Mixing text and numbers without converting deliberately.
  • Skipping an empty input or a boundary value when testing.

Practice

Calculate the total cost of three items priced at 12 each.
