how to use the issymbol function from the lodash library in typescript

To use the issymbol function from the lodash library in TypeScript, you need to install both typescript and lodash as dependencies in your project. After installation, you can import the function and use it in your code.

Here is an example of how to use the issymbol function in TypeScript:

index.ts
import { issymbol } from 'lodash';

const symbolValue = Symbol('mySymbol');
const stringValue = 'not a symbol';

console.log(issymbol(symbolValue)); // true
console.log(issymbol(stringValue)); // false
202 chars
8 lines

As you can see, the issymbol function takes a value as a parameter and returns a boolean indicating whether the value is a symbol or not.

To ensure that TypeScript understands the type of the returned value, you may need to install a type declaration file for lodash. You can do this by running npm install --save-dev @types/lodash. This will give you access to the type definitions for lodash, allowing TypeScript to enforce type safety in your code.
