Why does “,,,” == Array(4) in Javascript?

Question

Boot up your interpreter/console and try the comparison

> \",,,\" == Array(4)
True

Why? At first I thought maybe since you could think

Answer 1

I first thought it was something with the "prototype"... but after a little investigation I reached a sad conclusion...

Apparently it is an internal and more obscure js thing with not much logic...

Just try

Array(4)==Array(4)

and no coercion on types also...

Array(4)===Array(4)

and you'll get FALSE

you know that null==null, null===null and even undefined==undefined and undefined===undefined returns TRUE... so... it's a bit obscure...

Array(4)==[,,,] should be true also
