· _Modify the function so that it returns "Equal" only when the values are **strictly** equal._
#### Hint 1
Remember from last exercises that _unlike the equality operator, which attempts to convert both values being compared to a common type, the strict equality operator does not perform a type conversion._<sup><ahref="#cite1">1</a></sup>

## Spoiler alert!
**Solution ahead!**
## Basic code solution:
```javascript
// Setup
function compareEquality(a, b) {
if (a === b) { // Change this line
return "Equal";
}
return "Not Equal";
}
// Change this value to test
compareEquality(10, "10");
```
### Code explanation
The function first evaluates `if` the condition `(a === b)` evaluates to `true` considering both type and value. If it does, it returns the statement between the curly braces ("Equal"). If it doesn't, it returns the next `return` statement outside them ("Not equal").
