Number Properties
Here is the list of properties available in this object.
| Property | Description |
MIN_SAFE_INTEGER |
Represents the maximum safe integer in JavaScript (253 - 1). |
MAX_VALUE |
Returns the largest numeric value representable in JavaScript, approximately 1.79E+308. Values larger than MAX_VALUE are represented as Infinity. |
MIN_SAFE_INTEGER |
Represents the minimum safe integer in JavaScript (-(253 - 1)). |
MIN_VALUE |
Returns the smallest positive numeric value representable in JavaScript, approximately 5e-324. It is closest to 0, not the most negative number. Values smaller than MIN_VALUE are converted to 0. |
NEGATIVE_INFINITY |
Represents the negative infinity value. |
NaN |
Represents the "Not-A-Number" value. |
POSITIVE_INFINITY |
Represents the infinity value. |
prototype |
