• Use objects as keys:

  const PowerObject = require('power-object');
  let obj = new PowerObject();
  
  // objects are always different
  let key1 = {};
  let key2 = {};
  let key3 = new Date(); // even classes (which are technically just objects)
  
  obj.set(key1, 400);
  obj.set(key2, 500);
  obj.set(key3, 'hi');
  obj.set(3, 'hello'); // numbers aren't stringified
  
  obj.get(key1); // 400
  obj.get(key2); // 500
  obj.get(key3); // 'hi'
  obj.get(3); // 'hello'

• for...of iteration:

  const PowerObject = require('power-object');
  let obj = new PowerObject();
  
  let key1 = {};
  let key2 = {};
  
  obj.set(key1, 'some value');
  obj.set(key2, 89);
  
  for (let value of obj) console.log(value); // 'some value' then 89

PowerObject.prototype.keys()
