Example 1: In this example, we are checking whether the given value is an object or not by the use of the lodash _.isPlainObject() method.
// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require( "lodash" );
// Original array let object = _.isPlainObject(Object.create( null ));
// Using the _.isPlainObject() method let plain_data = (object); // Printing the output console.log(plain_data); |
Output:
true
Example 2: In this example, we are checking whether the given value is an object or not by the use of the lodash _.isPlainObject() method.
// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require( "lodash" );
// Original array let object = _.isPlainObject([1, 2, 3]); // Using the _.isPlainObject() method let plain_data = (object); // Printing the output console.log(plain_data); |
Output:
false
Example 3: In this example, we are checking whether the given value is an object or not by the use of the lodash _.isPlainObject() method.
// Requiring the lodash library const _ = require( "lodash" );
// Original array let object = _.isPlainObject({ 'x' : 0, 'y' : 0 });
// Using the _.isPlainObject() method let plain_data = (object); // Printing the output console.log(plain_data); |
Output:
true
Note: This code will not work in normal JavaScript because it requires the library lodash to be installed.
