sampleObject.isPrototypeOf({});              
// ✅ Returns true if the specified property is enumerable.
sampleObject.propertyIsEnumerable('prop2');    
// ✅ Returns a string representation of the object.
sampleObject.toString();                       
// ✅ Returns the primitive value of the object.
sampleObject.valueOf();                        

// Example Usage

Object.getPrototypeOf(newObj);    
// ✅ Returns true if the object has the specified property.
newObj.hasOwnProperty('key');     
// ✅ Returns true if the object is in the prototype chain of another object.
protoObj.isPrototypeOf(newObj);   
// ✅ Returns a string representation of the object.
newObj.toString();
