Blank or empty field in a list item using JavaScript

Question

What is considered an empty SharePoint list item when doing if else condition via JavaScript? "", null, or something else?

What field type are you checking?

I just did an alert to show what the empty list item was showing. It showed null. SO I i changed it to

if (whatever("whatever")==="" || whatever("whatever")=null)...

it now shows what I want to show.
