Script Preparation code:

var types = {
  array: [1,2,3],
  number: 123,
  string: '123',
  map: new Map([[1,1],[2,2],[3,3]]),
  set: new Set([1,2,3]),
  buffer: new ArrayBuffer([1,2,3]),
  boolean: true,

}

Tests:

instanceof
const t1 = types.array instanceof Array const t2 = types.object instanceof Array
isArray
const t1 = Array.isArray(types.array) const t2 = Array.isArray(types.object)
Symbol.iterator
const t1 = types.array[Symbol.iterator] !== undefined const t2 = types.object[Symbol.iterator] !== undefined
