Javascript Number
The Number object is a wrapper object which allows you to work with numerical values. The number object is created using the Number() constructor.It may be integer or floating-point. Syntax
var n=new Number(value);
Examples
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<script>
var x=100;//integer value
var y=100.7;//floating point value
var z=12e5;//exponent value, output: 1200000
var n=new Number(20);//integer value by number object
document.write(x+" "+y+" "+z+" "+n);
</script>
</body>
</html>
100 100.7 1200000 20
- If argument cannot be converted into a number, it returns NaN (Not a Number).
- In a non-constructor context (i.e., without the new operator), Number can be used to perform a type conversion.
