#10 Literal Types (Advanced Types)

 We can have a constant with two values types. Like in example;

Let quantity:50 | 100=100

Here, the quantity is assigned to 50 or 100. So the value of quantity can only be 50 or 100 else it shows an error. It can also be used for strings.

#6 Objects (Fundamentals of TS)

 In object in TS, it can be written as, let User:{name: string , id: number}={name: "", id:10} User.name="Ram"; Like in JS, we can modify the object. But we need to specify an empty variable inside the object prior. we can modify as given above.  OR, let User:{name?:string , id: number}={id:10} User.name="Hari" In this approach, we specify the type of the variable *if* it exists and do not have to specify an empty variable. The first approach is preferable. ________________________________________________________________________________ If we want to make a variable read only, So we dont accidently modify it, We can say as, let User:{readonly name: string , id: number}={name: "", id:10} User.name="Ram";(CANNOT BE DONE) By using readonly to a variable in an object, we then cannot modify that variable later on.

To make the weight act as a number, we use IF where if the (type of weight === number) so that the weight can act as a number ELSE it shall act as a string.
