Compare if string starts with symbol @ jquery or javascript

Hi guys anybody knows how to evaluate y a string starts with symbol "@", i am trying

myvar.substring(0,1)==="@"

But it gives me error, any idea?

UPDATE

I am working with .NET and mvc4, so it recognizes the @ as a symbol for cshtml, i am looking for a way out to compare that symbol

Try charCodeAt to get an integer for the character '@' so you don't need to use '@':

myvar.charCodeAt(0) === 64

Instead of 

myvar.substring(0,1)==="@"

Try

myvar.substring(0,1)==="@@"  //use two '@' as shown here
