What happens when objects are added `obj1 + obj2`, subtracted `obj1 - obj2` or printed using `alert(obj)`?

JavaScript doesn't exactly allow to customize how operators work on objects. Unlike some other programming languages, such as Ruby or C++, we can't implement a special object method to handle an addition (or other operators).
JavaScript doesn't allow you to customize how operators work on objects. Unlike some other programming languages, such as Ruby or C++, we can't implement a special object method to handle addition (or other operators).

In case of such operations, objects are auto-converted to primitives, and then the operation is carried out over these primitives and results in a primitive value.
