How to add a number and a string in JavaScript?

In JavaScript, the plus + operator is used for numeric addition and string concatenation. To adds the number to a string Just use plus between the number and string in Javascript.

String + Number = Concatenated string
Number + Number = The sum of both numbers
StringNumber = The difference between (coerced string) and the number

Note: When you “add” a number to a string the interpreter converts your number to a string and concatenates both together.

Example of JavaScript add the number to a string

If we try to add a number and a string then, as addition is not possible, ‘concatenation’ takes place.

In the example adding a number (integer) and string, also checking the output type.

<head>

</head>
<body>
    <body>

        var num1 = 10 + ' str ';
        console.log(num1);
        console.log(typeof num1);
    </script>
</body>
</body>
</html>
