What is @types/lodash.get?

What are @types/lodash.get's main functionalities?
Accessing Nested Properties
This feature allows you to access deeply nested properties in an object safely. If the property does not exist, it returns undefined.
const _ = require('lodash.get');
const object = { 'a': [{ 'b': { 'c': 3 } }] };
const value = _.get(object, 'a[0].b.c');
console.log(value); // Output: 3
Default Value
This feature allows you to specify a default value that will be returned if the property does not exist.
const _ = require('lodash.get');
const object = { 'a': [{ 'b': { 'c': 3 } }] };
const value = _.get(object, 'a[0].b.d', 'default');
console.log(value); // Output: 'default'
