This is cool I didn't know you could do that.

HATE RETURN

Good one :D

because despite having its dangers, the solution is beautiful to see, in the context of codewars, this type of solution comes out ahead... multiple 'ifs' are sometimes not very elegant..

I just read some comments below that clearly state you shouldn't use eval() for these kinds of purposes because eval() will
run absolutely anything, therefore it's potentially extremely hazardous to use it. So, explain to me: why the 724 Best Practices?

Why did I not think of this...

convert value1 and value 2 to strings first. Your code doesn't evaluate the values of value1 and value2. Say value1 = 1 and value2 = 3, your code is trying to evaluate value1 + value2 whereas it should be evaluating 1 + 3.

clever, I'm borrowing this!

kinda clever but it also has super shitty readability. I'd rather stay with some longer yet simpler solutions to this problem.
