JavaScript Object propertyIsEnumerable() Method

The propertyIsEnumerable() method returns a Boolean indicating whether the specified property is enumerable and is the object’s own property. The propertyIsEnumerable() method returns false if the object doesn’t have the specified property.

Syntax:



obj.propertyIsEnumerable(prop)

Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter.

Return value: This method returns a boolean value.



Example 1: This example shows the basic use of the JavaScript Object.prototype.propertyIsEnumerable() method.




<script>
    const obj = {};
    const arr = [];
    obj.property = 42;
    arr[0] = 42;
      
    console.log(obj.propertyIsEnumerable('property'));
    console.log(arr.propertyIsEnumerable(0));
    console.log(arr.propertyIsEnumerable('length'));
</script>

Output:

true
true
false

Example 2: The following example illustrates the enumerability of user-defined vs. built-in properties:




<script>
    let a = ['is enumerable'];
      
    console.log(a.propertyIsEnumerable(0));         
    console.log(a.propertyIsEnumerable('length'));   
      
    console.log(Math.propertyIsEnumerable('random'));  
    console.log(this.propertyIsEnumerable('Math'));     
</script>

Output:

true
false
false
false
