#  ``typeof`` operator is allowed only in expression contexts

Rule ``arkts-no-type-query``

**Severity: error**

ArkTS supports ``typeof`` operator only in the expression context. Using
``typeof`` to specify type notations is not supported.


## TypeScript


```

    let n1 = 42
    let s1 = "foo"
    console.log(typeof n1) // "number"
    console.log(typeof s1) // "string"
    let n2: typeof n1
    let s2: typeof s1

```

## ArkTS


```

    let n1 = 42
    let s1 = "foo"
    console.log(typeof n1) // "number"
    console.log(typeof s1) // "string"
    let n2: number
    let s2: string

```
