The Javascript Map() Constructor property returns the constructor function of the map. It only returns the reference of the function and does not return the name of the function. In the JavaScript Map() constructor, it returns the function Map(){ [native code] }.

Syntax:

Map.constructor

Return value: Return the construction function of the Map. in the javascript Map(). i.e. function Map() { [native code] }.

Example 1: In this example, the program returns the reference of the function.

    [2, 'CSS'],
    [3, 'Javascript'],
]);
console.log(language.constructor);

    [2, 4, 6, 8]
