Know the limits

• Zero is neither positive nor negative.

Keep exploring

• Check whether all values are equal — Compare every item with the first using Object.is.
• Check whether an object is empty — Check for own enumerable string keys on a JSON object.
• Check whether an integer is even — Test parity for safe integers, including zero and negative values.
