{{alias}}( value )
|
|
Returns a string value indicating a specification defined classification of
|
|
an object.
|
|
|
|
The function is *not* robust for ES2015+ environments. In ES2015+,
|
|
`Symbol.toStringTag` allows overriding the default description of an object.
|
|
While measures are taken to uncover the default description, such measures
|
|
can be thwarted. While this function remains useful for type-checking, be
|
|
aware that value impersonation is possible. Where possible, prefer functions
|
|
tailored to checking for particular value types, as specialized functions
|
|
are better equipped to address `Symbol.toStringTag`.
