In practice, however, most engines use insertion order to sort an `object`'s properties, thus allowing for deterministic extraction. 65 66 </section> 67 68 <!-- /.notes --> 69 70 <section class="examples"> 71 72 ## Examples 73 74 <!-- eslint no-undef: "error" --> 75 76 ```javascript 77 var hasSymbolSupport = require( '@stdlib/assert/has-symbol-support' ); 78 var Symbol = require( '@stdlib/symbol/ctor' ); 79 var writablePropertySymbols = require( '@stdlib/utils/writable-property-symbols' ); 80 81 var hasSymbols = hasSymbolSupport(); 82 var symbols; 83 var obj; 84 85 function Foo() { 86 if ( hasSymbols ) { 87 this[ Symbol( 'baz' ) ] = 'qux'; 88 } 89 return this; 90 } 91 92 if ( hasSymbols ) { 93 Foo.prototype[ Symbol( 'bip' ) ] = 'bop'; 94 } 95 96 obj = new Foo(); 97 symbols = writablePropertySymbols( obj ); 98 99 console.log( symbols ); 100 ``` 101 102 </section> 103 104 <!-- /.examples --> 105 106 <section class="links"> 107 108 [ecma-262-for-in]: http://www.ecma-international.org/ecma-262/5.1/#sec-12.6.4 109 110 </section> 111 112 <!-- /.links -->
