Example

Exampleopen in new window:

let bar = { e: 3, r: 4 };
let baz = { t: 5, y: 6 };
Object.assign(foo, bar, baz); // => foo = { q: 1, w: 2, e: 3, r: 4, t: 5, y: 6 }

Object.is(NaN, NaN); // => true
Object.is(0, -0); // => false
Object.is(42, 42); // => true
Object.is(42, "42"); // => false

function Parent() {}
function Child() {}
Object.setPrototypeOf(Child.prototype, Parent.prototype);
new Child() instanceof Child; // => true
new Child() instanceof Parent; // => true

let object = {

// Shallow object cloning with prototype and descriptors:

  Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(object)
);
// Mixin:
Object.defineProperties(target, Object.getOwnPropertyDescriptors(source));

const map = new Map([
  ["a", 1],
  ["b", 2],
]);
Object.fromEntries(map); // => { a: 1, b: 2 }

const units = new Set([new Unit(101), new Unit(102)]);
