npm badge

Gets the description of a Symbol. Handles Symbol() vs Symbol('') properly when possible.

Example

```js var getSymbolDescription = require(‘get-symbol-description’); var assert = require(‘assert’);

assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol()) === undefined); assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol(‘’)) === ‘’); // or undefined, if in an engine that lacks name inference from concise method assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol(‘foo’)) === ‘foo’); assert(getSymbolDescription(Symbol.iterator) === ‘Symbol.iterator’); ```

Tests

Simply clone the repo, npm install, and run npm test
