type in typescript code example

Example 1: typescript integer

// There is no int type, use number
const myInt: number = 17;
const myDecimal: number = 17.5;

Example 2: typescript type definition

// cannot use object for type defination because this is not recommended
// use Record<string, any> this same with object

const name: string = "john doe"
const age: number = 30

const days1: string[] = ["sunday","monday","thuesday","wenesday"]
const numb1: number[] = [1,2,3,4,5]

const days2: Array<string> = ["sunday","monday","thuesday","wenesday"]
const numb2: Array<number> = [1,2,3,4,5]

const person: Record<string, any> = {
	name: "john doe",
	age: 30
}

async function name(): Promise<string> {
	return "john doe"
}

name().then(console.log)

async function str(): Promise<string[]> {
	return ["sunday","monday","thuesday","wenesday"]
}

str().then(console.log)

async function int(): Promise<int[]> {
	return [1,2,3,4,5]
}

int().then(console.log)

async function objectValue(): Promise<Record<string, any>> {
	const person: Record<string, any> = {
	 name: "john doe",
	 age: 30
	}
  return person
}

objectValue().then(console.log)

async function objectValueMulti(): Promise<Record<string, any>[]> {
	const person: Record<string, any>[] = [{
	 name: "john doe",
	 age: 30
	},{
	 name: "jane doe",
	 age: 30
	}]
  return person
}

objectValueMulti().then(console.log)

Example 3: use type as value typescript

Typescript interfaces aren''t being compiled into the js output, and you can not use them at runtime

Example 4: custom types in typescript

// simple type
type Websites = 'www.google.com' | 'reddit.com';
let mySite: Websites = 'www.google.com' //pass
//or
let mySite: Website = 'www.yahoo.com' //error
// the above line will show error because Website type will only accept 2 strings either 'www.google.com' or 'reddit.com'.
// another example. 
type Details = { id: number, name: string, age: number };
let student: Details = { id: 803, name: 'Max', age: 13 }; // pass
//or 
let student: Details = { id: 803, name: 'Max', age: 13, address: 'Delhi' } // error
// the above line will show error because 'address' property is not assignable for Details type variables.
//or
let student: Details = { id: 803, name: 'Max', age: '13' }; // error
// the above line will show error because string value can't be assign to the age value, only numbers.

Example 5: typescript object type

//is not strict mode
let endedCoord: {x: number, y: number} = {
  	x: -1,
  	y: -1,
}

Example 6: typing in typescript

var name: string = "Anna";
let notes: (number | string)[] = ["Get Food", 23, "Call the previous number when betting"];
