## String.prototype.valueOf
-This is a stub. Help our community expand it.
+The `valueOf()` method returns the primitive string value of the given `String` object.
-This quick style guide will help ensure your pull request gets accepted.
+**Usage**
+```js
+var x = new String("hi");
+console.log(x); // String {"hi"}
+console.log(typeof x); // object
+console.log(x.valueOf()); // hi
+console.log(typeof x.valueOf()); // string
+```
-
+*Note*: For `String` objects, `valueOf()` and `toString()` return the same thing.
