Get decimal portion of a number with JavaScript

Use 1, not 2.

js> 2.3 % 1
0.2999999999999998

You could convert to string, right?

n = (n + "").split(".");

var decimal = n - Math.floor(n)

Although this won't work for minus numbers so we might have to do

n = Math.abs(n); // Change to positive
var decimal = n - Math.floor(n)

How is 0.2999999999999998 an acceptable answer? If I were the asker I would want an answer of .3. What we have here is false precision, and my experiments with floor, %, etc indicate that Javascript is fond of false precision for these operations. So I think the answers that are using conversion to string are on the right track.

I would do this:

var decPart = (n+"").split(".")[1];

Specifically, I was using 100233.1 and I wanted the answer ".1".
