• Number: The variable is valid if it is a finite number and not NaN.
• Object: The variable is valid if it is not null and has at least one key.
• Array: The variable is valid if it is not empty.
• Function: Functions are considered valid.
• Symbol: Symbols are considered valid.
• BigInt: BigInt values are considered valid.
• Boolean: Booleans are considered valid.
• Undefined: The variable is invalid if it is undefined.
• Default: For any other types, the function defaults to a truthiness check.
