javascript - 原型(prototype)链是如何运作的？

Question

var A = {};
var B = Object.create(A);
var C = Object.create(B);
A.isPrototypeOf(C);//returns true
C.isPrototypeOf(A);//returns false

在上面的代码中，我不理解在 C.isPrototypeOf(A);

中为假的结果背后的原因

Answer 1

var A = {}; // A inherits Object
var B = Object.create(A); // B inherits A inherits Object
var C = Object.create(B); // C inherits B inherits A inherits Object

// Does C inherit A?
A.isPrototypeOf(C); // true, yes
// C inherits A because    B inherits A    and    C inherits B

// Does A inherit C?
C.isPrototypeOf(A); // false, no
// A only inherits Object
