How to programmatically distinguish an arrow function from a regular function?

Question

There is no obvious difference between an arrow function and a regular function.

({}).toString.call(function () {})
\"[object Function]\"
({}).toString.call(         


        

Answer 1

Uhm, the requirements are a bit weird, but I made some tests and:

typeof (() => {}).prototype === "undefined"

Is true, while:

typeof (function () {}).prototype === "undefined"

Is false, so:

function isArrow(x)
{
  return typeof (x.prototype) === "undefined"
}
