#  GeneratorFunction

The **` GeneratorFunction ` ** object provides methods for [ generator
functions ](/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Statements/function*) . In
JavaScript, every generator function is actually a ` GeneratorFunction `
object.

Note that ` GeneratorFunction ` is _not_ a global object. It can be obtained
with the following code:

js

    
    
    const GeneratorFunction = function* () {}.constructor;
    

` GeneratorFunction ` is a subclass of [ ` Function ` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Function) .

##  Try it

##  Constructor

[ ` GeneratorFunction() ` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/GeneratorFunction/GeneratorFunction)

    

Creates a new ` GeneratorFunction ` object.

##  Instance properties

_Also inherits instance properties from its parent[ ` Function ` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Function) _ .

These properties are defined on ` GeneratorFunction.prototype ` and shared by
all ` GeneratorFunction ` instances.

[ ` GeneratorFunction.prototype.constructor ` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/Object/constructor)

    

The constructor function that created the instance object. For `
GeneratorFunction ` instances, the initial value is the [ ` GeneratorFunction
` ](/en-
US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/GeneratorFunction/GeneratorFunction)
constructor.

` GeneratorFunction.prototype.prototype `
