Description
Operator (inequality); tests for the exact opposite of the ==
operator. If expression1
is equal to expression2
, the result is false
. As with the ==
operator, the definition of equal depends on the data types being compared:
![]() |
Numbers, strings, and Boolean values are compared by value. |
![]() |
Variables, objects, arrays, and functions are compared by reference. |
This operator has been deprecated in Flash 5, and users are encouraged to use the !=
operator.
