Dart question about printing function as a string -

I have this code on Dart-

sum(a, b) {
return a + b;
}

If i run -

print(sum.toString());

I get -

Closure: () => dynamic from Function 'sum':.

If i run it on JavaScript -

console.log(sum.toString());

the print is -

// "sum(a, b) {
// return a + b;
// }"

How do i do the same print like I show in JavaScript but in Dart?

Thanks friends!

Not possible in Dart unless you are using some kind of builder which can save this information. What do you need this for? – julemand101 Dec 29 '20 at 17:43
I need to make an app that shows functions string on a page and run run those functions also. – Eden Nahum Dec 29 '20 at 17:52

And I'll ask "why do you need that? you can't turn that string back into a function at runtime..." – Randal Schwartz Dec 29 '20 at 18:30
