The noop function is used when you need to pass a function that does nothing. For example, if you have an observable that requires an onNext function but you don't need to perform any action there, you can pass noop as a placeholder:

index.ts
import { noop } from 'rxjs';
import { Observable } from 'rxjs/Observable';

const myObservable = new Observable<string>((observer) => {
  observer.next('Hello');
  observer.next('World');
  observer.complete();
});

myObservable.subscribe(
  (value) => console.log(value),
  noop, // no action needed for errors
  () => console.log('Complete')
);

In this example, the onError function is not needed because we are not handling any errors. We can pass the noop function as a placeholder to satisfy the subscribe method's signature.

That's it! Now you know how to use the noop function from the RxJS library in TypeScript.
