check if a value is numeric 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!
}

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 3: javascript check if a value is an int

// Returns true or false

Number.isInteger(2); //True
Number.isInteger(90); //True
Number.isInteger("37"); //False
Number.isInteger(false); //false
