# get \[Symbol.toStringTag]\()

## `[Symbol.toStringTag]()`

The [`get`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Functions/get) accessor, with the help of [`toStringTag`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Symbol/toStringTag), changes the default tag to `'TypeError'` for an instance of [`TypeError`](https://error.angular-package.dev/typeerror).

It can be read by the [`typeOf()`](https://docs.angular-package.dev/v/type/helper/typeof) function of [`@angular-package/type`](https://docs.angular-package.dev/v/type/).

{% code title="type-error.class.ts" %}

```typescript
public get [Symbol.toStringTag](): string {
  return 'TypeError';
}
```

{% endcode %}

### Return type

#### [<mark style="color:green;">`string`</mark>](https://www.typescriptlang.org/docs/handbook/basic-types.html#string)

### Returns

The **return value** is the word `'TypeError'` of a [`string`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/String).

// Example usage.
import { TypeError } from '@angular-package/error';
