ReferenceError: Rx is not defined

Question

I am just started learning angular2 and I am trying to do sample of RxJs using angular2. It would be highly appreciated, If some one help me.

RxJs Code-

var obs = Rx.Observable.interval(500)
       .take(5)
       .do(i => console.log(i) );

package.json

Answer 1

Update 2020:

For those using the CDN listed on their readme, i.e. https://unpkg.com/rxjs/bundles/rxjs.umd.min.js.

The developers must have changed the global namespace for rxjs from Rx to rxjs, so use rxjs instead of Rx,

var obs = rxjs.Observable.interval(500)
       .take(5)
       .do(i => console.log(i) );

For more information, read the rxjs's README.md

Answer 2

I just removed the Rx before Observable-

var obs = Observable.interval(500)
   .take(5)
   .do(i => console.log(i) );
