Check array membership with includes.

TypeScript: includes uses SameValueZero comparison, which also matches NaN.

TypeScript snippet.ts
console.log([1, 2, 3].includes(2));
console.log([NaN].includes(NaN));

Expected output EXAMPLE

true
true

Details

Requires TypeScript and Node.js. Save as snippet.ts, compile with tsc --strict --target ES2022 --module commonjs snippet.ts, then run node snippet.js. includes uses SameValueZero comparison, which also matches NaN.

Test inputs, results and environment

The exact published code ran in a dedicated Linux test container with prepared inputs. Snippet process uid 65534 with a read-only root filesystem and temporary working files. Networking disabled. Fixtures and output records are isolated from the application database. Testing covers this example and its stated checks, not every input, operating system, or runtime version. The Linux container shares its host's kernel; this is not a native Windows test.
