 *       , str: 'Hello'

 * The following would be the results.
 *
 *     hasProperty(obj, 'str');  // true
 *     hasProperty(obj, 'constructor');  // true
 *     hasProperty(obj, 'bar');  // false
 *
 *     hasProperty(obj.str, 'length'); // true
 *     hasProperty(obj.str, 1);  // true
 *     hasProperty(obj.str, 5);  // false
 *
 *     hasProperty(obj.arr, 'length');  // true
 *     hasProperty(obj.arr, 2);  // true
 *     hasProperty(obj.arr, 3);  // false
