Using void in a callback signature in TypeScript

TypeScriptBasic TypesVoid vs Neverbeginner

What this snippet does

Callbacks typed as void allow the caller to return anything without triggering a type error, ignoring the return value.

Expected output

init

Why practise typing this

Typing basic types code builds muscle memory for the symbols and indentation TypeScript uses most, which prose-based typing tests never cover. DevType measures your words per minute and accuracy on this snippet and tracks the individual characters you mistype, so later lessons can target them.
