Lodash _.isWeakMap() Method

The _.isWeakMap() method is used to find whether the given value is a weakmap object or not. It returns True if the given value is a weakmap object. Otherwise, it returns false.

Syntax:

_.isWeakMap(value)

Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter as mentioned above and described below:

  • value: This parameter holds the value to check.

Return Value: This method returns true if value is a weakmap, else false.

Note: Here, const _ = require(‘lodash’) is used to import the lodash library into the file.

Example 1:




// Requiring the lodash library  
const _ = require("lodash");  
       
// Creating a array of size 2
// using constructor 
var obj= new Array(2); 
  
// Filling value 5 in the array 
obj.fill(5) 
      
// Use of _.isWeakMap() method 
console.log(_.isWeakMap(obj)); 


Output:

false

Example 2:  




// Requiring the lodash library  
const _ = require("lodash");  
       
// Use of _.isWeakMap() method 
  
// When a weak set is given
console.log(_.isWeakMap(new WeakMap)); 
  
// When a weak set is not given
console.log(_.isWeakMap(new Map));


Output:

true
false

Note: This will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the library lodash to be installed.
