unable to use _.toInteger() in n_ repl - how can I force lodash major version 4?

[paul42]

Hey @borisdiakur love your library, but I think I'm doing something wrong, I can't get _.toInteger() to work, I get an error - when I install globally I think it's still doing lodash major v 3?

paul42$ npm install -g n_

let me know if there is a certain area I can look at to submit a pull request. thanks for the awesome library!

Hi Paul. There is currently no n_4 command. Not until lodash v5 is out. The n_3 command starts the REPL with lodash v3 included, which doesn’t have the toInteger method. Have you tried using the command n_ (need to ask because I do not see it above)?

Here is my output:

$ npm i -g n_

@borisdiakur thanks for taking the time to reply - I must've done something wrong previously or been in a bad state, I uninstalled, reinstalled and the command worked fine! user error. Sorry for opening the issue.

Thanks so much for your time and the great library!
