javascript check if key exists in object
"key" in obj // true, regardless of the actual value
If you want to check if a key doesn't exist, remember to use parenthesis:
!("key" in obj) // true if "key" doesn't exist in object
!"key" in obj // ERROR! Equivalent to "false in obj"

obj.hasOwnProperty("key") // truehow to check if a key is present in a dictionary in js
