// COERCION
/*
Explicit coercion is simply that you can see obviously from the code
that a conversion from one type to another will occur whereas implicit
coercion is when the type conversion can happen as more of a non-obvious
side effect of some other operation.

// Explicit coercion:
var a = "42";
var b = Number( a );
a;				// "42"
b;				// 42 -- the number!

// Explicit coercion:
var a = "42";   // typeof "String"
var b = a * 1;	// "42" implicitly coerced to 42 here
a;              // "42"
b;              // 42 -- the number!
