TypeScript Numbers

0 0 2 minutes read

TypeScript is like JavaScript which supports numerical values as Number objects. The numbers in typescript are used as both integers as well as floating-point values. The number class acts as wrapper and manipulates the numeric literals as they were objects.

Syntax:

var var_name = new Number(value)

Property:

MAX_VALUE: It has the largest possible value 1.7976931348623157E+308 in JavaScript.
MIN_VALUE: It has the smallest possible value 5E-324 in JavaScript.
NaN: This property has Equal to a value that is not a number.
NEGATIVE_INFINITY: This has a value that is less than MIN_VALUE.
POSITIVE_INFINITY: This has a value that is greater than MAX_VALUE.
prototype: This property is used to assign new properties and methods to the Number object.
constructor: This property will return the function that created this object’s instance

Example:

console.log(" Number Properties in TypeScript: ");  
console.log("Maximum value of a number variable has : " 
                                   + Number.MAX_VALUE);  
console.log("The least value of a number variable has: " 
                                    + Number.MIN_VALUE);  
console.log("Value of Negative Infinity: " 
                             + Number.NEGATIVE_INFINITY);  
console.log("Value of Negative Infinity:" 
                             + Number.POSITIVE_INFINITY); 

Output:

Number Properties in TypeScript:  
Maximum value of a number variable has: 1.7976931348623157e+308 
The least value of a number variable has: 5e-324 
Value of Negative Infinity: -Infinity 
Value of Negative Infinity:Infinity

Example of NaN:

var day = 0  
if( day<=0 || v >7) {  
   day = Number.NaN  
   console.log("Day is "+ day)  
} else {  
   console.log("Value Accepted..")  
} 

Output:

Month is NaN

Methods:

toExponential(): This method will return a number to display in exponential notation.
toFixed(): This method will stable the number to the right of the decimal with a specific number of digits.
toLocaleString(): This method is used to convert the number into a local specific representation of the number.
toPrecision(): It will define total digits to the left and right of the decimal to display of a number. It will also show an error when there is negative precision.
toString(): Used to return the string representation of the number in the specified base.
valueOf(): This method will return number’s primitive value.

Example 1:

// The toExponential()  
var num1 = 2525.30  
var val = num1.toExponential();  
console.log(val) 

Output:

2.5253e+3

Example 2:

// The toFixed() 
var num3 = 237.134  
console.log("num3.toFixed() is "+num3.toFixed())  
console.log("num3.toFixed(2) is "+num3.toFixed(3))  
console.log("num3.toFixed(6) is "+num3.toFixed(5)) 

Output:

num3.toFixed() is 237 
num3.toFixed(2) is 237.134 
num3.toFixed(6) is 237.13400

Example 3:

// The toLocaleString() 
var num = new Number( 237.1346);  
console.log( num.toLocaleString()); 

Output:

237.1346

Example 4:

// The toPrecision() 
var num = new Number(5.7645326);  
console.log(num.toPrecision());  
console.log(num.toPrecision(1));  
console.log(num.toPrecision(2)); 

Output:

5.7645326 
5 
5.7

Example 5:

// The toString() 
var num = new Number(10);  
console.log(num.toString());  
console.log(num.toString(2));  
console.log(num.toString(8)); 

Output:

10 
1010 
12

Example 6:

// The valueOf() 
var num = new Number(20);  
console.log(num.valueOf());
