| 
 | |
| ## Install
 | |
| 
 | |
| Install with [npm](https://www.npmjs.com/):
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```sh
 | |
| $ npm install --save is-number
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Why is this needed?
 | |
| 
 | |
| In JavaScript, it's not always as straightforward as it should be to reliably check if a value is a number. It's common for devs to use `+`, `-`, or `Number()` to cast a string value to a number (for example, when values are returned from user input, regex matches, parsers, etc). But there are many non-intuitive edge cases that yield unexpected results:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| console.log(+[]); //=> 0
 | |
| console.log(+''); //=> 0
 | |
| console.log(+'   '); //=> 0
 | |
| console.log(typeof NaN); //=> 'number'
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| This library offers a performant way to smooth out edge cases like these.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Usage
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| const isNumber = require('is-number');
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| See the [tests](./test.js) for more examples.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### true
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| isNumber(5e3);               // true
 | |
| isNumber(0xff);              // true
 | |
| isNumber(-1.1);              // true
 | |
| isNumber(0);                 // true
 | |
| isNumber(1);                 // true
 | |
| isNumber(1.1);               // true
 | |
| isNumber(10);                // true
 | |
| isNumber(10.10);             // true
 | |
| isNumber(100);               // true
 | |
| isNumber('-1.1');            // true
 | |
| isNumber('0');               // true
 | |
| isNumber('012');             // true
 | |
| isNumber('0xff');            // true
 | |
| isNumber('1');               // true
 | |
| isNumber('1.1');             // true
 | |
| isNumber('10');              // true
 | |
| isNumber('10.10');           // true
 | |
| isNumber('100');             // true
 | |
| isNumber('5e3');             // true
 | |
| isNumber(parseInt('012'));   // true
 | |
| isNumber(parseFloat('012')); // true
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### False
 | |
| 
 | |
| Everything else is false, as you would expect:
 | |
| 
 | |
| ```js
 | |
| isNumber(Infinity);          // false
 | |
| isNumber(NaN);               // false
 | |
| isNumber(null);              // false
 | |
| isNumber(undefined);         // false
 | |
| isNumber('');                // false
 | |
| isNumber('   ');             // false
 | |
| isNumber('foo');             // false
 | |
| isNumber([1]);               // false
 | |
| isNumber([]);                // false
 | |
| isNumber(function () {});    // false
 | |
| isNumber({});                // false
 | |
| ```
 | |
| 
 | |
| ## Release history
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 7.0.0
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Refactor. Now uses `.isFinite` if it exists.
 | |
| * Performance is about the same as v6.0 when the value is a string or number. But it's now 3x-4x faster when the value is not a string or number.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 6.0.0
 | |
| 
 | |
| * Optimizations, thanks to @benaadams.
 | |
| 
 | |
| ### 5.0.0
 | |
| 
 | |
| **Breaking changes**
 | |
| 
 | |
| * removed support for `instanceof Number` and `instanceof String`
 | |
| 
 | |
