This rule applies when two values with different types are compared with strict equality.
Strict equality is always false
for different types, so this comparison is not likely to be a programmer's intent.
Noncompliant Code Example
View with compliant examples side by sidevar x = 10 / 3;
var b = x.toFixed(1) === 3.3; // COMPARE_INCOMPATIBLE_TYPE_STRICTLY alarm because 'toFixed' function returns string type.
