Expres

  • double and single quotes are equivalent
  • object.property has the same meaning as object['property']

EL also liberates the programmer from having to know the particularities of how the values are actually accessed: object.property can mean (depending on what the object is) either object.get("property") or object.getProperty("property") or object.getProperty() etc.
