# inheritedProperties

> Return an array of an object's inherited property names and [symbols][@stdlib/symbol/ctor].

<section class="usage">

## Usage

```javascript
var inheritedProperties = require( '@stdlib/utils/inherited-properties' );
```

#### inheritedProperties( obj\[, level] )

Returns an `array` of an object's inherited property names and [symbols][@stdlib/symbol/ctor].

```javascript
var props = inheritedProperties( [ 1, 2, 3 ] );
// returns [...]
```

By default, the function walks an object's entire prototype chain. To limit the inheritance level, provide a `level` argument.

```javascript
var props = inheritedProperties( [ 1, 2, 3 ], 1 );
```
