instanceof Operator
Last updated
What is instanceof Operator?
The instanceof operator checks if an object is an instance of a specific class or constructor function. It determines if the prototype property of a constructor appears anywhere in the prototype chain of an object. The result of this check is a boolean value, indicating whether the object is considered an instance of the specified type.
