+    /// ### Why is this bad?
+    ///
+    /// The `charAt` method returns a string of length 1. If the return value is compared with a string of length greater than 1, the comparison will always be false.
+    ///
+    /// ### Example
+    /// ```javascript
+    /// // Bad: The return value of the `charAt` method is compared with a string of length greater than 1.
+    /// a.charAt(4) === 'a2';
+    /// a.charAt(4) === '/n';
+    ///
+    /// // Good: The return value of the `charAt` method is compared with a string of length 1.
