# writablePropertyNamesIn > Return an array of an object's own and inherited writable property names.
## Usage ```javascript var writablePropertyNamesIn = require( '@stdlib/utils/writable-property-names-in' ); ``` #### writablePropertyNamesIn( obj ) Returns an `array` of an object's own and inherited writable property names. ```javascript var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' ); var obj = { 'a': 'b' }; defineProperty( obj, 'c', { 'configurable': true, 'enumerable': true, 'writable': false, 'value': 'd' }); var keys = writablePropertyNamesIn( obj ); // e.g., returns [ 'a', ... ] ```
## Notes - Name order is not guaranteed, as `object` key 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 keys, thus allowing for deterministic extraction.
## Examples ```javascript var defineProperty = require( '@stdlib/utils/define-property' ); var writablePropertyNamesIn = require( '@stdlib/utils/writable-property-names-in' ); function Foo() { this.a = { 'b': 'c' }; defineProperty( this, 'baz', { 'configurable': true, 'enumerable': true, 'writable': false, 'value': 'qux' }); return this; } Foo.prototype.foo = [ 'bar' ]; defineProperty( Foo.prototype, 'bip', { 'configurable': true, 'enumerable': true, 'writable': false, 'value': 'bop' }); var obj = new Foo(); var keys = writablePropertyNamesIn( obj ); console.log( keys ); // e.g., => [ 'a', 'foo', ... ] ```
