JavaScript Leaders Demand Oracle Release the JavaScript Trademark
In an open letter, JavaScript community leaders urge Oracle to give up the JavaScript trademark, arguing that it has been effectively abandoned through nonuse.

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Test if a value is a string.
npm install @stdlib/assert-is-string
var isString = require( '@stdlib/assert-is-string' );
Tests if a value is a string
.
var bool = isString( 'beep' );
// returns true
bool = isString( new String( 'beep' ) );
// returns true
Tests if a value
is a primitive string
.
var bool = isString.isPrimitive( 'beep' );
// returns true
bool = isString.isPrimitive( new String( 'boop' ) );
// returns false
Tests if a value
is a String
object.
var bool = isString.isObject( 'beep' );
// returns false
bool = isString.isObject( new String( 'boop' ) );
// returns true
var isString = require( '@stdlib/assert-is-string' );
var bool = isString( 'beep' );
// returns true
bool = isString( new String( 'beep' ) );
// returns true
bool = isString( 5 );
// returns false
bool = isString( null );
// returns false
bool = isString( void 0 );
// returns false
bool = isString( {} );
// returns false
bool = isString( [] );
// returns false
bool = isString( function foo() {} );
// returns false
This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
