I am wondering how to remove decimals in large numbers without it having to round off?
My float is:
number = 32.223516
The result that I want is 32223516.
When I do this:
parseInt(number * 1000000, 10) it gives me 32223515.
And if I use Math.ceil or Math.round, it'll be a problem for cases that would need it to round down.
Is there a cleaner way to do this?
Advance thanks!
Number.parseInt(
yourVariable.toString().replace('.', '')
);
Try this:
let number = 32.223516
console.log(parseInt(number.toString().replace('.', '')));
If you know that the number always needs to be multiplied by 1000000 to get what should be the whole number version of it, do that with Math.round:
console.log(Math.round(32.223516 * 1000000));
Otherwise, I'd be tempted to take a round trip through a string:
console.log(+(32.223516).toString().replace(".", ""));
...but you need to beware of scientific notation, see the answers here for how to convert the number to string without scientific notation.
That is an example of how JavaScript handles all numbers as floating-point numbers.
What can help you in this case is if you convert the number to string form, retain only the desired amount of numbers after the decimal point, which is probably 0 in your case, by using toFixed() method, which would convert and round-off accordingly, like so:
number = 32.223513;
numberToFixed = (num * 1000000).toFixed(0); //argument is amount of numbers to be retained after decimal point

I see that by replacing this line of code
Math.floor(Math.random() * 10)
by this one:
~(Math.random() * 10
I get the same result, why is that ?
No, since they don´t work the same. The ~ NOT operator inverts the bits of a integer, so if you have the binary number 0101 (5 in decimal), the operator would return:
~0101 = 1010; // ~5 = 10
But since JavaScript uses 32-bit signed integer, the result would be different:
~00000000000000000000000000000101 = 11111111111111111111111111111010 // ~5 = -6
The Math.floor() function returns the maximum integer less or equal to a number, so using the same example with number 5:
Math.floor(5) // ==> would return 5
You can see that both operators return different values.
However, it is possible to simulate a Math.Floor() function using the ~ operator in float number, just multiplying * -1 the number and then substracting - 1 to the result, but I hardly don´t reccommend it as it makes the code less legigable:
const number = 5.56;
console.log(~number * -1 - 1); // returns 5
console.log(Math.floor(number)); // returns 5
To sum up, they are differents operator, each of them has his own funcionality.
The short answer is no, it's syntax, so you'll have to type something to round a float down to an int.
Either Math.floor() or parseInt().
If you wanted to shorten the typing for yourself you could create a short named function that returns the same result:
function mf(number){
return Math.floor(number);
}
console.log(mf(Math.random() * 10));
Yes, you can:
parseInt(yourvalue)

let num = 100;
document.write("Num: " + num + "");
document.write("Binary: " + num.toString(2) + "");
document.write("8: " + num.toString(8) + "");
document.write("16: " + num.toString(16));
//I want this, but without toString() or any other method.
welcome to Stack Overflow! This sounds like a homework question, because you have been asked to implement something that would normally be done using builtin methods. Here is the outline of how I would approach this, to help you get started.
If you had to write the number 100 in base 16, what would the last digit of the answer be?
How did you come to that conclusion?
Now what would the decimal value of the remainder of the hexadecimal number have to be? Hint: answer = 96.
How did you come to that conclusion?
Your last answer will be a multiple of 16, because you have removed already the remainder after dividing by 16. You have done: number - (number modulo 16).
If you divide this by 16, you have a new, smaller number, which again you can convert into hexadecimal in the same way as above. In this manner you can keep extracting one hexadecimal digit at a time, until there is no reminder.
This gives your hexadecimal number, outputted in reverse order.
You can do the same for any base.

i am trying to round a numeric value to upto 2 decimal places in javacript.
Please try to access the following url
https://www.jsnippet.net/snippet/1665/1/Rounding-a-value-upto-2-decimal-places
If you notice the code i am trying to round the following values
3.225 , 4.225 and 5.225
If you notice the result, 3.225 is rounded of to 3.23 which is correct.
Also 5.225 is rounded of to 5.23 which is also correct but 4.225 is getting rounded of to 4.22 instead of 4.23
Can anyone please tell me how to fix this.
try this..
Number(Math.round(3.225+'e2')+'e-2');
This is a painful task on Javascript. From my experience, I do things like this:
function round(n, places = 2) {
var epsilon = Number.EPSILON*1000;
var exponent = Math.pow(10, places);
var integral = Math.round((n+epsilon) * exponent);
return integral/exponent;
}
epsilon is a very small number to compensate this behavior of floats in JavaScript.
Note: please don't use this function for sensitive data, is just a very very simple rounding function.
if you have to deal with sensitive data, use MathJS as user King suggested.
Use the mathjs library, provided here. The round function provided by this library is more precise than the builtin library. I've already tested your code using it and it works!

I have tried with value.tofixed(7).
When I'm giving int value(3) its returning decimal (7) (e.g) 3.0000000.
At the same time if I give a float value(3.3) its returning decimal(6) (e.g) 3.300000
How to solve this?
3.300000 has 6 decimal places because of the code rounded one 0 to place the 3.
try this:
var value = 3;
var n = value.tofixed(7);
and
var value2 = 3.30;
var n = value2.tofixed(7);
I think you need to use :
- Math.floor() : https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Objets_globaux/Math/floor.
- or Math.ceil() : https://developer.mozilla.org/fr/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Objets_globaux/Math/ceil
Instead of toFixed().
There is another method called Math.round() which makes the round (upper or lower depending of the number you round) automatically without asking you about the floor/ceil param'.
You can use toFixed() which return a fixed number of decimal point value (rounded). You can also use value.toPrecision(x) which will return x number of total digits.

How to round the factorial value in java scripts if we have below value
7.156945704626378 e +118
I want 7.16 only
please let me know if we have any solution?
var number=7.1569;
number*=100;
var new_number = Math.round(number);
new_number/=100;
((Number(7.156945704626378e+118))/1.0e+118).toFixed(2);
try this
you can refer links
Formatting a number with exactly two decimals in JavaScript
and
How to convert a String containing Scientific Notation to correct Javascript number format
Put it in a String variable:
var x = "7.156945704626378e+118";
Then use a regular expresion which checks for the part before e and parse it back to float:
var y = parseFloat(x.match(/\d+[.][0-9]+/)[0]);
And round to 2 decimal points by:
var z = y.toFixed(2);
If you still want your e118 just multiply z with 1e118 then.
Here is a working fiddle
I am not sure whether this approach is correct but this give what user want in question.
Number((+num.toString().replace(/e.*/, '')).toFixed(2))
DEMO
var num = 7.156945704626378e+118;
console.log(Number((+num.toString().replace(/e.*/, '')).toFixed(2)));
# 7.16
Note:
This assumes that exponent is not significant and mantissa is what all required for rounding off.
