I am just playing with the instanceof operator. I want to know whether my understanding is correct or not
var C = function(){};
// in the above statement C has a "prototype" property which points to an object which has
// the constructor property which points to C constructor
var o1 = new C();
// in above statement o1.__proto__ is points to C.prototype. that means inheriting from C.prototype.
console.log(o1 instanceof C) // returns true
//instanceof will check o1.__proto__ is equals to C.prototype(recursively until it finds null object).
C.prototype = {};
console.log(o1 instanceof C) // false;
in the above case o1 was inherited from C.prototype which points to the different object not the present C.prototype object (empty object). so the instanceof condition check fails hence its false.
please tell me if my interpretation is wrong
