I know what the author is trying to say,
Now that you've brought it up, I've realized I have no idea what the author is trying to say in the second sentence. Partial<T>
only returns the params of the targeted type with the optional
flag on each one, doesn't it? Does something else happen if the targeted type isn't an object literal?
The definition of
Partial<T>
states:To paraphrase Inigo Montoya: You use the word "subset". I do not think it means what you think it means.
A "type with all properties of T set to optional" does not represent subsets of T.
Examples of "subsets of a given type":
real number
, some subsets:rational number
,integer
number | string | null
, some subsets:number
,number | null
I know what the author is trying to say, but can't come up with the right words, though I probably should have spent more time on that than what I've put into this Issue so far 😂.
