💻 Code

// We can quickly address your report if:
//  - The code sample is short. Nearly all TypeScript bugs can be demonstrated in 20-30 lines of code!
//  - It doesn't use external libraries. These are often issues with the type definitions rather than TypeScript bugs.
//  - The incorrectness of the behavior is readily apparent from reading the sample.
// Reports are slower to investigate if:
//  - We have to pare too much extraneous code.
//  - We have to clone a large repo and validate that the problem isn't elsewhere.
//  - The sample is confusing or doesn't clearly demonstrate what's wrong.

// TS2367 (wrong) error
console.log('401' == 401)

🙁 Actual behavior

compiler says it is always false like if it was with triple equals, instead is true with double equal.

🙂 Expected behavior

well it should not report the error in this case
