Is there a standard function to check for null, undefined, or blank variables in JavaScript?

Question

Is there a universal JavaScript function that checks that a variable has a value and ensures that it\'s not undefined or null? I\'ve got this code,

Answer 1

If you are using TypeScript and don't want to account for "values those are false" then this is the solution for you:

First: import { isNullOrUndefined } from 'util';

Then: isNullOrUndefined(this.yourVariableName)

Please Note: As mentioned below this is now deprecated, use value === undefined || value === null instead. ref.
