lodash.get is 200 lines of code and this is just 17 and it uses only builtin array and string functions.

your code is nice and elegant, however lodash treats more use cases, and performance proved (not just saying 'fast' at the title)

i'd use lodash in my project, but i like yours also.

And lodash has 203 contributors, has been around since 2009 and it's very likely that every JS developer will need more than _.get() in their projects.

Guys, guys, I'm not trying to create a lodash-killer library. I myself am a happy user of lodash and I use it on a daily basis. I also respect John Dalton for creating and maintaining it. Bear with me, please :)

This is just my solution of the same problem _.get solves. If you're concerned about the performance I've created a small benchmark which runs _.get and oget 1000 times each with the same test case. I'm not saying it is always faster, but on node.js 4.4.4 LTS it is currently a little faster.

You may check the benchmark here:
https://github.com/zewish/oget/tree/master/benchmark

Results on my machine are:
[oget] average time: 16146.49
[_get] average time: 17311.53

this is a bit unfair if you look at the code. Most of the line is comment...

You should probably look at the code of the lodash.get module, one of the first lines of code does require('lodash._stringtopath').

Try to open this module and count only the the lines with code. All in all lodash.get is more than 200 lines of code :)
