| What | Lazy mode | "The right way" |
| --- | --- | --- |
| String to number | `+str` | `parseInt(str, 10)` or `parseFloat()` |
| Math floor | `num | 0` | `Math.floor(num)` |
| Number to string | `'' + num` | `num.toString()` |
| Date to UNIX timestamp | `+new Date()` | `new Date().getTime()` |
| Any to boolean | `!!value` | `Boolean(value)` |
| Check array contents | `if (~arr.indexOf(v))` | `if (arr.includes(v))` |
> `.includes` is ES6-only, otherwise use `.indexOf(val) !== -1` if you don't polyfill
## Examples
```js
n = +'4096' // n === 4096
s = '' + 200 // s === '200'
```
