Javascript – Check if a variable is of function type

javascript

Suppose I have any variable, which is defined as follows:

var a = function() {/* Statements */};

I want a function which checks if the type of the variable is function-like. i.e. :

function foo(v) {if (v is function type?) {/* do something */}};
foo(a);

How can I check if the variable a is of type Function in the way defined above?

Best Answer

if (typeof v === 'function') {
    // do something
}
