Return Value: This method returns a Boolean value.

Example 1: This method returns true for an Array as it is an object also.

Javascript

// Defining Lodash variable 
const _ = require('lodash');  
     
var val = [1, 2, 3]; 
  
// Checking for an ArrayLikeObject 
console.log("The Value is ArrayLikeObject : " 
    +_.isArrayLikeObject(val));

Output:
