How do I convert a float number to a whole number in JavaScript?
var intvalue = Math.floor( floatvalue );
var intvalue = Math.ceil( floatvalue );
var intvalue = Math.round( floatvalue );
// `Math.trunc` was added in ECMAScript 6
var intvalue = Math.trunc( floatvalue );

Fastest way to cast a float to an int in javascript?
Great Question! I actually had to deal with this the other day! It may seem like a goto to just write parseInt but wait! we can be fancier.
So we can use bit operators for quite a few things and this seems like a great situation! Let's say I have the number from your question, 12.345, I can use the bit operator '~' which inverts all the bits in your number and in the process converts the number to an int! Gotta love JS.
So now we have the inverted bit representation of our number then if we '~' it again we get ........drum roll......... our number without the decimals! Unfortunately, it doesn't do rounding.
var a = 12.345;
var b = ~~a; //boom!
We can use Math.round() for that. But there you go! You can try it on JSperf to see the slight speed up you get! Hope that helps!
What is the best method to convert floating point to an integer in JavaScript?
According to this website:
parseInt is occasionally used as a means of turning a floating point number into an integer. It is very ill suited to that task because if its argument is of numeric type it will first be converted into a string and then parsed as a number...
For rounding numbers to integers one of Math.round, Math.ceil and Math.floor are preferable...
get decimal places and convert it to whole number javascript
Probably the simplest way is to go through text:
var value = 1.25;
var fractionalPartAsWholeNumber = +String(value).split(".")[1];
That's fairly dense, but basically:
String(value)
gives us a string"1.25"
.split(".")
gives us an array with"1"
in the first entry and"25"
in the second[1]
accesses the second entry in the array- The
+
at the very beginning converts that back to a number — assuming you want it as a number, that is; if you want it as a string, leave that leading+
off
If the values always have two digits of precision, you can do it mathematically:
var value = 1.25;
var fractionalPartAsWholeNumber = (value - Math.floor(value)) * 100;
Or you could convert to string, find out how many places there are to the right of the .
, and then do the above but multiplying by 10^places. But the string method is probably fine.
How to format a float in javascript?
var result = Math.round(original*100)/100;
The specifics, in case the code isn't self-explanatory.
edit: ...or just use toFixed
, as proposed by Tim Büthe. Forgot that one, thanks (and an upvote) for reminder :)
Get decimal portion of a number with JavaScript
Use 1
, not 2
.
js> 2.3 % 1
0.2999999999999998
JavaScript displaying a float to 2 decimal places
float_num.toFixed(2);
Note:toFixed()
will round or pad with zeros if necessary to meet the specified length.
Formatting a number with exactly two decimals in JavaScript
To format a number using fixed-point notation, you can simply use the toFixed method:
(10.8).toFixed(2); // "10.80"
var num = 2.4;
alert(num.toFixed(2)); // "2.40"
Note that toFixed()
returns a string.
IMPORTANT: Note that toFixed does not round 90% of the time, it will return the rounded value, but for many cases, it doesn't work.
For instance:
2.005.toFixed(2) === "2.00"
UPDATE:
Nowadays, you can use the Intl.NumberFormat
constructor. It's part of the ECMAScript Internationalization API Specification (ECMA402). It has pretty good browser support, including even IE11, and it is fully supported in Node.js.
const formatter = new Intl.NumberFormat('en-US', {
minimumFractionDigits: 2,
maximumFractionDigits: 2,
});
console.log(formatter.format(2.005)); // "2.01"
console.log(formatter.format(1.345)); // "1.35"
