How to use Number constructor In Typescript

In this approach, we are using the Number constructor to convert a numeric value to a string with a fixed number of decimal places using the toFixed method, then this constructor is used to the resulting string, which parses it back into a floating-point number with the specified precision.

Syntax:

Number(value: any): number;

Example: The below example uses the Number constructor and toFixed method to convert the number 123.45678 into a string with two decimal places and then parses it back to a floating-point number (123.46).

Javascript




const input: number = 123.45678;
const output: number = Number(input.toFixed(2));
console.log(output);


Output:

123.46
