Underscore.js _.iteratee() Function
Underscore.js is a JavaScript library that provides a lot of useful functions that help in the programming in a big way like the map, filter, invoke, etc. even without using any built-in objects.
The _.iteratee() function is an inbuilt function in Underscore which is used to generate a callback that can be applied to every element in a collection. This method supports multiple shorthand syntaxes for common callback use cases and returns the output depending on the type of the value.

Output:
function(n){return n}
Example 2: In this example, a user-defined function is given to the method.
HTML
<!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <script src= </script> </head> <body> <script type="text/javascript"> // Calling iteratee method // with its parameter console.log( _.iteratee( function (num) { return num * 4; } ) ); </script> </body> </html> |
Output:
function(num) { return num * 4; }
Example 3: In this example, a key-value pair is passed as the parameter.
HTML

Output:
function(n){return h.isMatch(n,r)}
Example 4: In this example, a string is passed as the parameter.
