This section of documentation outlines the purpose and functionality of each function built into the library regardless of data type or class. But if there is a function (which there is) that has the same name but different implementation based on the data type, both examples and documentation will be listed accordingly.

isTrue - Checks if the variable passed into the Contract is true and will throw an error if it is false.

myVar: boolean = false;
Contract.In(myVar).isTrue();
// throws a ReferenceError

isFalse - Checks if the variable passed into the Contract is false and will throw an error if it's true.

myVar: boolean = false;
Contract.In(myVar).isFalse();
// returns true, no error thrown

isNotNull - Checks if any variable as a pre or post condition passed into the TypedContract is null and if the variable is null a ReferenceError is thrown.

myVar: string = null;
Contract.In(myVar,"my var").isNotNull();
// throws a ReferenceError`

isNull - Checks if any variable in the pre or post condition passed into the TypedContract is null. The TypedContract will throw an error if the variable is not null

myVar: number =  1;
Contract.In(myVar,"my var").isNull();
// throws a ReferenceError	`

isDefined - Checks if any variable passed into the TypedContract as a pre or post condition is defined with a value. The TypedContract will throw an error if the variable is not defined.

myVar: any[];
Contract.In(myVar).isDefined();
// throws a ReferenceError`

isNotDefined - Checks if any variable passed into the TypedContract as a pre or post condition is not defined with a value. The TypedContract will throw an error if the variable is defined.

myVar: any[] = [1, 2, 3];
Contract.In(myVar).isNotDefined();
// throws a ReferenceError`

isNullOrUndefined - Checks if any variable passed into the TypedContract as a pre or post condition is not null or undefined. The TypedContract will throw an error if the variable is null or undefined.

myVar: any = null;  // or	myVar: any;
Contract.In(myVar).isNullOrUndefined();
// throws a ReferenceError`

isEqualTo - Checks if the variable passed into the TypedContract as a pre or post condition equals the same value as the argument passed into the "isEqualTo" function. The TypedContract will throw an error if the variable is not equal to the argument passed into this function.

The iEqualTo function's implementation varies based on the data type

// For data types of String, Number, Boolean
myVar: string = "TypedContract";
Contract.In(myVar).isEqualTo("TypedContract");
// will return true, no error will be thrown`

For the array data type, an array index must be specified when comparing array's with the "isEqualTo" function

// For the data type of array (Number, String, Boolean etc.)
myVar: any[] = [1, 2, 3];
compareTo: number[] = [5, 2, 9];
// take note of the second argument that is required, an array index.
Contract.In(myVar).isEqualTo(compareTo, 0); 
// throws a RangeError`

isNotEqualTo - Checks if the variables passed into the values compared is not equal to the argument passed into the function. The TypedContract will thrown an error if both of the values passed into the TypedContract are equal.

myVar: number = 4;
compareTo: number = 4;
Contract.In(myVar).isNotEqualTo(compareTo);
// throws a RangeError`

For the array data type, an array index must be specified when comparing array's with the "isNotEqualTo" function

myVar: any[] = [1, 2, 3];
compareTo: number[] = [5, 2, 9];
Contract.In(myVar).isNotEqualTo(compareTo, 0); // take note of the second argument that is required, an array index.
// returns true, no error thrown`

isLessThan - Checks if the variables passed into the TypedContract as a pre or post condition is less than the Contract pre or post condition passed into the TypedContract. The TypedContract will throw an error if the Contract is equal or greater than the argument passed into the function.

myVar: number = 3;
compareTo: number = 5;
Contract.In(myVar).isLessThan(compareTo);
// returns true`

isNotLessThan - Checks if the variables passed into the TypedContract as a pre or post condition is not less than the Contract pre or post condition passed into the TypedContract. The TypedContract will throw an error if the Contract is equal or less than the argument passed into the function.

myVar: number = 3;
compareTo: number = 5;
Contract.In(myVar).isNotLessThan(compareTo);
// throws a RangeError`

The TypedContract will throw an error if the argument passed into the function is greater than the Contract pre or post condition.

compareTo: number = 5;
Contract.In(myVar).isLessOrEqualThan(compareTo);
// returns true, no error thrown`

compareTo: number = 5;
Contract.In(myVar).isNotLessOrEqualThan(compareTo);
// throws a RangeError`

Contract.In(myVar).isGreaterThan(compareTo);
// returns true, no error thrown`

compareTo: number = 7;
Contract.In(myVar).isGreaterThan(compareTo);
// throws a RangeError`

// returns true`

compareTo: string = "TypeScript";
Contract.In(myVar).isLengthGreaterThan(compareTo);
// returns true, no error thrown`
