6.1 Constants, Variables, and Conversions
Expressions are built up from values and the operations performed upon them. This section describes the elementary objects that provide the values used in expressions.
| • Constants | String, numeric and regexp constants. | |
| • Using Constant Regexps | When and how to use a regexp constant. | |
| • Variables | Variables give names to values for later use. | |
| • Conversion | The conversion of strings to numbers and vice versa. |
