JavaScript Numbers

Numbers can be written with or without decimals Extra large or extra small numbers can be written with exponent notation Number are considered accurate only up to 15 digits Floating point arithmetic is not always 100% accurate But it helps to multiply and divide by 10 Adding two numbers results in a new number Adding two numeric strings results in a concatenated string Adding a number and a numeric string also results in a concatenated string Adding a numeric string and a number also results in a concatenated string Common mistake when adding strings and numbers 1 Common mistake when adding strings and numbers 2 JavaScript will try to convert strings to numbers when dividing JavaScript will try to convert strings to numbers when multiplying JavaScript will try to convert strings to numbers when subtracting JavaScript will NOT convert strings to numbers when adding A number divided by a string is NaN (Not a Number) A number divided by a numeric string is a number The global JavaScript function isNaN() returns if a value is a number Using NaN in a mathematical operation will always return NaN Using NaN in a mathematical string operation will concatenate NaN NaN (Not a Number) is a number (Yes! typeof NaN returns number) Infinity is returned if you calculate a number outside the largest possible number Division by zero also generates Infinity Infinity is a number (typeof Infinity returns number) Constants, preceded by 0x, are interpreted as hexadecimal The toString() method can output numbers as hex, octal, and binary Numbers can be objects Numbers and objects cannot be safely compared Objects and objects cannot be safely compared

Numbers Explained

JavaScript Number Methods

The toString() method converts a number to a string The valueOf() method returns a number as a number The toExponential() returns a number with exponential notation The toFixed() method rounds a number to a number of digits The toPrecision() method a number written with a specified length The global method Number() converts variables to numbers The global method Number() can even convert dates to numbers The global method parseInt() converts strings to numbers The global method parseFloat() converts strings to numbers MAX_VALUE returns the largest possible number in JavaScript MIN_VALUE returns the smallest possible number in JavaScript POSITIVE_INFINITY represents infinity POSITIVE_INFINITY is returned on overflow NEGATIVE_INFINITY represents negative infinity NEGATIVE_INFINITY is returned on overflow NaN Represents "Not-a-Number" Arithmetic performed on a string will result in NaN Using a Number property on a variable will return undefined
