# inheritedWritableProperties
> Return an array of an object's inherited writable property names and [symbols][@stdlib/symbol/ctor].
## Usage
```javascript
var inheritedWritableProperties = require( '@stdlib/utils/inherited-writable-properties' );
```
#### inheritedWritableProperties( obj\[, level] )
Returns an `array` of an object's inherited writable property names and [symbols][@stdlib/symbol/ctor].
```javascript
var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' );
function Foo() {
this.a = 'b';
return this;
}
defineProperty( Foo.prototype, 'beep', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': true,
'value': 'boop'
});
var f = new Foo();
var props = inheritedWritableProperties( f );
// e.g., returns [ 'beep', ... ]
```
By default, the function walks an object's entire prototype chain. To limit the inheritance level, provide a `level` argument.
```javascript
var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' );
var inherit = require( '@stdlib/utils/inherit' );
function Bar() {
return this;
}
defineProperty( Bar.prototype, 'boop', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': true,
'value': 'beep'
});
function Foo() {
Bar.call( this );
this.a = 'b';
return this;
}
inherit( Foo, Bar );
defineProperty( Foo.prototype, 'beep', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': true,
'value': 'boop'
});
var f = new Foo();
var pros = inheritedWritableProperties( f, 1 );
// e.g., returns [ 'beep', ... ]
```
## 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.
## Examples
```javascript
var hasSymbolSupport = require( '@stdlib/assert/has-symbol-support' );
var Symbol = require( '@stdlib/symbol/ctor' );
var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' );
var inheritedWritableProperties = require( '@stdlib/utils/inherited-writable-properties' );
var hasSymbols = hasSymbolSupport();
var props;
var obj;
function Foo() {
this.beep = 'boop';
this.a = {
'b': 'c'
};
defineProperty( this, 'baz', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': true,
'value': 'qux'
});
if ( hasSymbols ) {
this[ Symbol( 'a' ) ] = 'b';
defineProperty( this, 'beep', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': false,
'value': 'boop'
});
}
return this;
}
Foo.prototype.c = 'd';
defineProperty( Foo.prototype, 'bip', {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': false,
'value': 'bop'
});
if ( hasSymbols ) {
Foo.prototype[ Symbol( 'c' ) ] = 'd';
defineProperty( Foo.prototype, Symbol( 'e' ), {
'configurable': false,
'enumerable': false,
'writable': false,
'value': 'f'
});
}
obj = new Foo();
props = inheritedWritableProperties( obj );
console.log( props );
// e.g., => [ 'c', ... ]
