How to understanding the expression "{} == true"?

<p>I try to understanding the expression <code>{} == true</code> following the section <code>7.2.12</code> of doc <a href="http://ift.tt/AmLIEB"><code>Ecma-262</code></a>.</p><blockquote><ol start="9"><li>If Type(y) is Boolean, return the result of the comparison <code>x == ToNumber(y)</code></li></ol></blockquote><p>The result of <code>ToNumber(true)</code> is <code>1</code>, then</p><p><code>{} == 1</code></p><blockquote><ol start="11"><li>If Type(x) is Object and Type(y) is either String, Number, or Symbol, then return the result of the comparison <code>ToPrimitive(x) == y</code>.</li></ol></blockquote><p>I am confused at the <code>ToPrimitive({})</code> now.</p><blockquote><ol start="3"><li><p>If hint is "string", then</p><p>a. Let methodNames be «"toString", "valueOf"».</p></li><li><p>Else,</p><p>a. Let methodNames be «"valueOf", "toString"».</p></li></ol></blockquote><p><strong>Should <code>ToPrimitive({})</code> be interpreted as <code>{}.toString()</code> or <code>{}.valueOf()</code>?</strong></p><p>Suppose the <code>toString()</code> is called.</p><blockquote><p>If Type(x) is String and Type(y) is Number, return the result of the comparison <code>ToNumber(x) == y</code></p></blockquote><p>So <code>{} == true</code> could be <code>ToNumber(ToPrimitive({})) == ToNumber(true)</code>?</p><br /><h2>Click here view more answers <a href="%20http://stackoverflow.com/questions/34525917/how-to-understanding-the-expression-true">http://ift.tt/1RQXrg2</a></h2>
