be courageous

[pannous]

Staying close to the JavaScript specification is good, however be courageous when it makes sense to diverge from js bugs / bad specification:

• 015, 0001 bad
• 0o77 (octal, base 8) ok

please do not strictly copy other bad behaviour:

• typeof null == 'object' // but
• null instanceof Object == false
• "foo" instanceof String == false
• "foo" instanceof Object == false
• true instanceof Boolean == false
• 12.21 instanceof Number == false
• [0, 1, 2] + [3, 4, 5] == '0,1,23,4,5'
• typeof NaN == 'number' // but
• NaN != NaN
• NaN instanceof Number == false
• [] == ![]
• '3' - 1 === 2
• '3' + 1 === '31'
• 0.1 + 0.2 != 0.3
• .1*.2 != 0.02
• 4 in [2,4] == false // "cedar" in {"cedar":"maple"} ok
• var x,i = 1 // x == undefined

Suggested minimal innovations

• [] {} should be falsy, as is ''
• 'in' operator should work as expected
• typeof operator should work as expected
• and , or as synonyms for &&, ||

That's it for he moment we don't want to go astray too far

PS: Fantastic project, I was very plased to see that https://github.com/01alchemist/TurboScript was not abandoned but rather push to higher ground.
