---|
14 | ## Example
|
---|
15 |
|
---|
16 | ```js
|
---|
17 | var getSymbolDescription = require('get-symbol-description');
|
---|
18 | var assert = require('assert');
|
---|
19 |
|
---|
20 | assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol()) === undefined);
|
---|
21 | assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol('')) === ''); // or `undefined`, if in an engine that lacks name inference from concise method
|
---|
22 | assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol('foo')) === 'foo');
|
---|
23 | assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol.iterator) === 'Symbol.iterator');
|
---|
24 | ```
|
---|
25 |
