I'm a selftaught (web) developer. On sunny days, you can find me hiking through the Teutoburg Forest, on rainy days coding or with a good fiction novel in hand.
When your run 'a' + + 'a' you're doing 'a' + +'a'. JavaScript tries to cast +'a' to a number which is cleary impossible; so it returns NaN (Not a Number) and then it concatenates the NaN to other chars, creating the baNaNa string. The magic happens with the toLowerCase() method :)
