While the function should **always** return `true` if provided an [`EvalError`][mdn-eval-error] (or a descendant) object, false positives may occur due to the fact that the [`EvalError`][mdn-eval-error] constructor inherits from [`Error`][mdn-error] and has no internal class of its own. Hence, [`EvalError`][mdn-eval-error] impersonation is possible. 63 64 </section> 65 66 <!-- /.notes --> 67 68 <!-- Package usage examples. --> 69 70 <section class="examples"> 71 72 ## Examples 73 74 <!-- eslint no-undef: "error" --> 75 76 ```javascript 77 var isEvalError = require( '@stdlib/assert/is-eval-error' ); 78 79 var bool = isEvalError( new EvalError( 'eval error' ) ); 80 // returns true 81 82 bool = isEvalError( new Error( 'error' ) ); 83 // returns false 84 85 bool = isEvalError( new RangeError( 'range error' ) ); 86 // returns false 87 88 bool = isEvalError( new ReferenceError( 'reference error' ) ); 89 // returns false 90 91 bool = isEvalError( new SyntaxError( 'syntax error' ) ); 92 // returns false 93 94 bool = isEvalError( new TypeError( 'type error' ) ); 95 // returns false 96 97 bool = isEvalError( new URIError( 'URI error' ) ); 98 // returns false 99 100 bool = isEvalError( {} ); 101 // returns false 102 103 bool = isEvalError( null ); 104 // returns false 105 ``` 106 107 </section> 108 109 <!-- /.examples --> 110 111 <!-- Section to include cited references.
