3 lines
  1. Call the set function as follows:
index.ts
let object = { 'a': [{ 'b': { 'c': 3 } }] };
set(object, 'a[0].b.c', 4);
console.log(object.a[0].b.c); // Output: 4

4 lines

In the code block above, the first line contains an object object with a nested property a[0].b.c. The set function is used to set the value of a[0].b.c to 4. The last line is used to verify that the value of a[0].b.c has indeed been changed to 4.
