Addition is not working in JavaScript

I am trying to learn Javascript. Here I am confused with the following code.

http://rendera.heroku.com/usercode/eae2b0f40cf503b36ee346f5c511b0e29fc82f9e

When I put x+y in the function it is going wrong. For example 2+2=22, 5+7=57

But /, *, - are working. Why is + not working? Please help me. Thanks a lot in advance

One or both of the variables is a string instead of a number. This makes the + do string concatenation.

'2' + 2 === '22';  // true

2 + 2 === 4;  // true

The other arithmetic operators / * - will perform a toNumber conversion on the string(s).

'3' * '5' === 15;  // true

A quick way to convert a string to a number is to use the unary + operator.

+'2' + 2 === 4;  // true

...or with your variables:

+x + +y
