isSameType

Test if two arguments have the same type.

Usage

var isSameType = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-same-type' );

isSameType( a, b )

Tests if two arguments a and b have the same type.

var bool = isSameType( false, true );
// returns true

bool = isSameType( 'beep', 'boop' );
// returns true

bool = isSameType( 0.0, '0.0' );
// returns false

Notes

• The function uses the typeof operator to determine the type of each argument.
• The function returns true if the types are the same and false otherwise.

Examples

var isSameType = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-same-type' );

var bool = isSameType( true, false );
// returns true

bool = isSameType( 3.14, -3.14 );
// returns true

bool = isSameType( {}, [] );
// returns true

bool = isSameType( null, null );
// returns true

bool = isSameType( NaN, NaN );
// returns true

bool = isSameType( null, NaN );
// returns false

bool = isSameType( 0.0, '0.0' );
// returns false
