check for number in javascript code example

Example 1: javascript check if number

//Updated dec 2020
// The first 2 Variations return a Boolean
// They just work the opposite way around

// IsInteger
if (Number.isInteger(val)) {
	// It is indeed a number
}

// isNaN (is not a number)
if (isNaN(val)) {
	// It is not a number
}

// Another option is typeof which return a string
if (typeof(val) === 'number') {
	// Guess what, it's a bloody number!
}

Example 2: javascript check if number

// The first 2 Variations return a Boolean
// They just work the opposite way around

// IsInteger
if (Number.isInteger(val)) {
	// It is indeed a number
}

// isNaN (is not a number)
if (isNaN(val)) {
	// It is not a number
}

// Another option is typeof which return a string
if (typeof(val) === 'number') {
	// Guess what, it's a bloody number!
}

Example 3: integer check in javascript

var a=Number.isInteger(5); //True
var b= Number.isInteger(01); //True
var c=Number.isInteger("10"); //False

console.log(a,b,c);  //true true false

Example 4: javascript check if number

function isNumber(n) { return /^-?[\d.]+(?:e-?\d+)?$/.test(n); } 

------------------------

isNumber('123'); // true  
isNumber('123abc'); // false  
isNumber(5); // true  
isNumber('q345'); // false
isNumber(null); // false
isNumber(undefined); // false
isNumber(false); // false
isNumber('   '); // false

Example 5: javascript check if a value is a integer number

Number.isInteger(123) //true
Number.isInteger(-123) //true
Number.isInteger(5-2) //true
Number.isInteger(0) //true
Number.isInteger(0.5) //false
Number.isInteger('123') //false
Number.isInteger(false) //false
Number.isInteger(Infinity) //false
Number.isInteger(-Infinity) //false
Number.isInteger(0 / 0) //false

Example 6: To check if a value is a number in JavaScript

const value = 2
isNaN(value) //false
isNaN('test') //true
isNaN({}) //true
isNaN(1.2) //false
