I have a function:
function f(a)
do something that depends on a
end
which behaviour depends on the parameter a
. This can be a string, an int or a function itself. For this, I want to check if the parameter is a function itself.
function f(a)
if typeof(a) == int
...
end
...
end
I tried to use typeof(a)
. If a
is a function, I get :
typeof(a) (singleton type of function a, subtype of Function)
but if I then use:
typeof(a) == Function
it is false
.
You can use isa()
for this. A simple example:
julia> f(x) = x
f (generic function with 1 method)
julia> isa(f, Function)
true
isa
can also be used as an infix operator:
julia> f isa Function
true
