The util.types.isArrayBuffer() method is an inbuilt application programming interface of the util module which is used to check for built-in ArrayBuffer type objects in the node.js.

Syntax:

util.types.isArrayBuffer( value )

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

  • value: It is a required parameter of any datatype.

Return Value: It returns a boolean value i.e. TRUE if the value is a built-in ArrayBuffer object, FALSE otherwise.

Below examples illustrate the use of util.types.isArrayBuffer() method in Node.js:

Example 1:




// Node.js program to demonstrate the   
// util.types.isArrayBuffer() Method 
  
// Allocating util module
const util = require('util');
  
// Printing the returned value from
// util.types.isArrayBuffer() method
console.log(util.types.isArrayBuffer(new ArrayBuffer()));
console.log(util.types.isArrayBuffer(new SharedArrayBuffer()));
console.log(util.types.isArrayBuffer(39));
console.log(util.types.isArrayBuffer("gfg"));


Output:

true
false
false
false

Example:




// Node.js program to demonstrate the   
// util.types.isArrayBuffer() Method 
  
// Allocating util module
const util = require('util');
  
// Printing the returned value from 
// util.types.isArrayBuffer() method
if (util.types.isArrayBuffer(new ArrayBuffer())) {
    console.log("Passed value is built in ArrayBuffer");
}
if (util.types.isArrayBuffer(new SharedArrayBuffer())) {
    console.log("Passed value is built in ArrayBuffer");
}


Output:

Passed value is built in ArrayBuffer

Note: The above program will compile and run by using the node filename.js command.
