Can i use GreaterThan as parameter type?

[enccode]

Newbie here...

Is it possible to use GreaterThan type for the function/method parameters?

when I write the following function:

import type {GreaterThan} from 'type-fest'

function printNumberOfBooks <N extends number> (numberOfBooks: GreaterThan<N, 0>): void {
    console.log(numberOfBooks)
}

and... :

printNumberOfBooks(2)

I get the following typescript error:

Argument of type 'number' is not assignable to parameter of type 'never'

It took me hours... I didn't find a solution

Would be nice to include an example of this in the doc comment of the type.

I asked this question 2 hours ago on reddit...came to post the link here and saw you did it faster... I would be happy if I could help you by putting the examples in the documentation... but I think it's better if someone with more experience in TypeScript does it... Thank you for your time and making very useful tools.

There are already examples in the doc comment of GreaterThan.
