     37 ## Usage
     38 
     39 ```javascript
     40 var BigInt = require( '@stdlib/bigint/ctor' );
     41 ```
     42 
     43 #### BigInt( value )
     44 
     45 Returns a [`BigInt`][mdn-bigint] primitive.

     47 <!-- run-disable -->
     48 
     49 ```javascript
     50 var v = BigInt( '1' );
     51 // returns <bigint>

     64 ## Notes
     65 
     66 -   Unlike conventional constructors, the function does **not** support the `new` keyword.
     67 -   The function is only supported in environments which support [`BigInt`][mdn-bigint]. In non-supporting environments, the value is `undefined`.
