# inheritedNonEnumerablePropertySymbols

> Return an array of an object's inherited non-enumerable [symbol][@stdlib/symbol/ctor] properties.

<section class="usage">

## Usage

<!-- eslint-disable id-length -->

```javascript
var inheritedNonEnumerablePropertySymbols = require( '@stdlib/utils/inherited-nonenumerable-property-symbols' );
```

#### inheritedNonEnumerablePropertySymbols( obj\[, level] )

Returns an `array` of an object's inherited non-enumerable [symbol][@stdlib/symbol/ctor] properties.

```javascript
var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' );
var hasSymbolSupport = require( '@stdlib/assert/has-symbol-support' );
var Symbol = require( '@stdlib/symbol/ctor' );

var hasSymbols = hasSymbolSupport();
var symbols;
var f;

function Foo() {
    if ( hasSymbols ) {
        defineProperty( this, Symbol( 'a' ), {
            'configurable': false,
            'enumerable': false,
            'writable': false,
            'value': 'a'
        });
    }
    return this;
}

if ( hasSymbols ) {
    defineProperty( Foo.prototype, Symbol( 'b' ), {
        'configurable': false,
        'enumerable': false,
        'writable': false,
        'value': 'b'
    });
}

f = new Foo();
symbols = inheritedNonEnumerablePropertySymbols( f );
```

By default, the function walks an object's entire prototype chain. To limit the inheritance level, provide a `level` argument.

```javascript
var symbols = inheritedNonEnumerablePropertySymbols( [], 1 );
```

## Notes

-   Property order is not guaranteed, as `object` property enumeration is not specified according to the [ECMAScript specification][ecma-262-for-in]. In practice, however, most engines use insertion order to sort an `object`'s properties, thus allowing for deterministic extraction.
