      return typeof v === 'undefined';
      },
      isN = function(v) {
      return v === null;
      },
      isUN = function(v) {
      return typeof v !== 'undefined' && v !== null;
      },
      isUNfn = function(v) {
      return !isU(v) && !isN(v);
      },
      isUNb = function(v) {
      return !!!v;
