In JavaScript, the hasOwnProperty() method is a built-in method of objects that is used to check if an object has a property with a specified name. It returns a boolean value indicating whether the object contains a property with the given name directly on itself (not inherited from its prototype chain).
Syntax:
object.hasOwnProperty(propertyName)
object: The object on which to check for the presence of a property.propertyName: The name of the property to check for.
Example: Here, the hasOwnProperty() method is called on the obj object to check if it has properties named “name” and “gender”. Since “name” is an own property of obj, the method returns true. However, since “gender” is not an own property of obj, but a property that doesn’t exist in the object, the method returns false.
Javascript
const obj = { name: "John", age: 30 };
console.log(obj.hasOwnProperty("name"));
console.log(obj.hasOwnProperty("gender"));
