javascript check if string is number

// native returns true if the variable does NOT contain a valid number
isNaN(num)

// can be wrapped for making simple and readable
function isNumeric(num){
  return !isNaN(num)
}

isNumeric(123)         // true
isNumeric('123')       // true
isNumeric('1e10000')   // true (This translates to Infinity, which is a number)
isNumeric('foo')       // false
isNumeric('10px')      // false

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!
}
