### <span id="Tag">Tag</span>

<p>Get a `Tag` of the `Field`, `Tag` is a abstract struct field tag</p>

```go
func (f *Field) Tag() *Tag
```

<b>Example:</b>

```go
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/duke-git/lancet/v2/structs"
)

func main() {
    type Parent struct {
        Name string `json:"name,omitempty"`
    }
    p1 := &Parent{"111"}

    s := structs.New(p1)
    n, _ := s.Field("Name")
    tag := n.Tag()

    fmt.Println(tag.Name)

    // Output:
    // name
}
```

### <span id="Value">Value</span>

<b>Signature:</b>

```go
func (f *Field) Value() any
```

<b>Example:</b>

```go
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/duke-git/lancet/v2/structs"
)

func main() {
    type Parent struct {
        Name string `json:"name,omitempty"`
    }
    p1 := &Parent{"111"}

    s := structs.New(p1)
    n, _ := s.Field("Name")

    fmt.Println(n.Value())

    // Output:
    // 111
}
```

### <span id="IsEmbedded">IsEmbedded</span>

<p>Check if the field is an embedded field</p>

<b>Signature:</b>

```go
func (f *Field) IsEmbedded() bool
```

<b>Example:</b>

```go
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/duke-git/lancet/v2/structs"
)

func main() {
    type Parent struct {
        Name string
    }
    type Child struct {
        Parent
        Age int
    }
    c1 := &Child{}
    c1.Name = "111"
    c1.Age = 11

    s := structs.New(c1)
    n, _ := s.Field("Name")
    a, _ := s.Field("Age")

    fmt.Println(n.IsEmbedded())
    fmt.Println(a.IsEmbedded())

    // Output:
    // true
    // false
}
```

### <span id="IsExported">IsExported</span>

<p>Check if the field is exported</p>

<b>Signature:</b>

```go
func (f *Field) IsExported() bool
```

<b>Example:</b>

```go
package main

import (
    "fmt"
    "github.com/duke-git/lancet/v2/structs"
)

func main() {
    type Parent struct {
        Name string
        age  int
    }
    p1 := &Parent{Name: "11", age: 11}
    s := structs.New(p1)
    n, _ := s.Field("Name")
    a, _ := s.Field("age")

    fmt.Println(n.IsExported())
    fmt.Println(a.IsExported())

    // Output:
    // true
    // false
}
```

### <span id="IsZero">IsZero</span>
