JavaScript in Operator

The in-operator in JavaScript checks if a specified property exists in an object or if an element exists in an array. It returns a Boolean value.

Syntax:

prop in object

Example 1: Here is the basic example of using in operator.

Javascript




let languages = ["HTML", "CSS", "JavaScript"];
  
// true (index 1 exists in the array)
console.log(1 in languages);
  
// false (index 3 doesn't exist in the array)
console.log(3 in languages);


Output

true
false

Example 2: In this example, we are using in operator to check if the “name” property exists (true) and if the “address” property doesn’t exist (false).

Javascript




const Data = {
    name: "Rahul",
    age: 21,
    city: "Noida"
};
  
// true ("name" property exists in the object)
console.log("name" in Data);
  
// false ("gender" property doesn't exist in the object)
console.log("address" in Data);


Output

true
false
