# isCollection
> Test if a value is a collection.
A collection is defined as either an [`Array`][mdn-array], [`Typed Array`][mdn-typed-array], or an array-like [`Object`][mdn-object] (excluding `strings` and `functions`).
## Usage
```javascript
var isCollection = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-collection' );
```
#### isCollection( value )
Tests if a value is a collection.
```javascript
var bool = isCollection( [] );
// returns true
```
## Examples
```javascript
var Int8Array = require( '@stdlib/array/int8' );
var Uint8Array = require( '@stdlib/array/uint8' );
var Uint8ClampedArray = require( '@stdlib/array/uint8c' );
var Int16Array = require( '@stdlib/array/int16' );
var Uint16Array = require( '@stdlib/array/uint16' );
var Int32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/int32' );
var Uint32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/uint32' );
var Float32Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float32' );
var Float64Array = require( '@stdlib/array/float64' );
var isCollection = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-collection' );
var bool = isCollection( [] );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Float64Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Float32Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Int32Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Uint32Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Int16Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Uint16Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Int8Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Uint8Array( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( new Uint8ClampedArray( 10 ) );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( { 'length': 0 } );
// returns true
bool = isCollection( {} );
// returns false
bool = isCollection( 'beep' );
// returns false
bool = isCollection( isCollection );
// returns false
bool = isCollection( null );
// returns false
bool = isCollection( void 0 );
// returns false
bool = isCollection( 3.14 );
// returns false
