Parameters: key: It represents the specific key for which the symbol has to be fine.
Returns: Symbol corresponding to a specific key.
Example 1:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script>
var alpha = Symbol.for("!");
var beta = Symbol.for("!");
document.write(alpha == beta);
</script>
</body>
</html>
Example 2:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script>
document.write(Symbol.for('w3spoint') === Symbol.for('w3spoint'));
document.write("</br>");
document.write(Symbol('w3spoint') === Symbol('w3spoint'));
document.write("</br>");
const symbol = Symbol.for('Jai');
document.write(symbol.toString());
</script>
