The Number.parseInt()
method parses a string argument and returns an integer of the specified radix or base.
SyntaxEdit
Number.parseInt(string[, radix])
Parameters
string
- The value to parse. If
string
is not a string, then it is converted to a string (using theToString
abstract operation). Leading whitespace in the string is ignored.
radix
- An integer between 2 and 36 that represents the radix (the base in mathematical numeral systems) of the above mentioned string. Specify
10
for the decimal numeral system commonly used by humans. Always specify this parameter to eliminate reader confusion and to guarantee predictable behavior. Different implementations produce different results when a radix is not specified, usually defaulting the value to 10.
DescriptionEdit
This method is completely the same function with the global parseInt()
function:
Number.parseInt === parseInt; // true
and is part of ECMAScript 6 (its purpose is modularization of globals). Please see parseInt()
for more details and examples.
PolyfillEdit
Number.parseInt = parseInt;
