How to Convert String to Number or Integer in javascript/Jquery

In this article, we will learn how to convert string to number or integer using javascript/jquery. To convert a string to a number or integer, javascript provides various functions such as Number() , parseInt() , parseFloat() , Math.floor() , Math.ceil() , Unary Operator(+) or Multiply by 1 which takes a string as input and returns an integer or number. In another article, you can learn how to convert number to string in javascript or jquery.

Convert String to Number By using Number() function

In my opinion, the simplest way would be to use the native Number function, this function takes care of the decimals as well:

Example — Convert String to Number By using Number() function

var a = Number('1000'); //it will return 1000 var b = Number('10,000') //it will return NaN (Not a Number) var c = Number('10.00') //it will return 10 var d = Number('10.51') //it will return 10.51 // if string value contains any character other than the number, then it return NaN (Not a Number) var e = Number('10 hello') //it will return NaN (Not a Number) var f = Number('hello 10') //it will return NaN (Not a Number)

If Number() function doesn’t work for you, then you can use other methods such as parseInt() , parseFloat() , Math.floor() , Math.ceil() , Unary Operator(+) or Multiply by 1 .

Convert String To Number by Using parseInt() function

parseInt() method is used to convert string to Number (a whole number).

This method accepts 2 arguments:

1. 1st Parameter : string value to convert
2. 2nd Parameter : Radix, it is a base number used in mathematical systems

Prefixes used in a String Value

• No prefix — If there isn’t a prefix, the radix is 10 (decimal) .
• 0 — If the value start at 0 , then the radix is 8 (octal) . Though, this feature is deprecated.
• 0x — If the value starts at 0x , then the radix is 16 (hexadecimal) .

Note:- When you convert string to Number using parseInt() method, don’t forget the second parameter, which is the radix, always 10 for decimal numbers, or if you don’t pass the second parameter, then the conversion might try to guess the radix and gives you an unexpected output.

Code — Convert String To Number by Using parseInt() function

var a = parseInt('1000') // it will return 1000 var b = parseInt('1000.51') // it will return 1000 var c = parseInt('1000,00') // it will return 1000 var d = parseInt('1000 hello') // it will return 1000 //if string does not start with a number, then you will get a NaN(Not a Number) var e = parseInt('hello 1000') // it will return NaN (Not a Number)

Convert String To Number by Using parseFloat() function

parseFloat() function is used to convert String to Number(with decimal points). If string value contains a number with decimal points, then this function will retain those decimal points. This function takes only one parameter.

Code — Convert String To Number by Using parseFloat() function

var a = parseFloat('253'); // it will return 253 var b = parseFloat('253.53'); // it will return 253.53 var c = parseFloat('253.25hello'); // it will return 253.25 //if string does not start with a number, then you will get a NaN(Not a Number) var d = parseFloat('hello 253'); // it will return NaN (Not a Number)

Convert String To Number by Using Math.floor() function

Math.floor() function is used to convert String to Number but it returns only the integer part of the number.

Code — Convert String To Number by Using Math.floor() function

var a = Math.floor('10,000') //it will return NaN var b = Math.floor('10.000') //it will return 10 var c = Math.floor('10.00') //it will return 10 var d = Math.floor('10.20') //it will return 10 var e = Math.floor('10.81') //it will return 10 var f = Math.floor('100') //it will return 100 var g = Math.floor('100 hello') //it will return NaN 

Convert String To Number by Using Math.ceil() function

This function is very similar to Math.floor() function. Math.ceil() function always rounds a number up to the next largest whole number or integer.

Code — Convert String To Number by Using Math.ceil() function

var a = Math.ceil('10,000') //it will return NaN var b = Math.ceil('10.000') //it will return 10 var c = Math.ceil('10.00') //it will return 10 var d = Math.ceil('10.20') //it will return 11 var e = Math.ceil('10.81') //it will return 11 var f = Math.ceil('100') //it will return 100 var g = Math.ceil('100 hello') //it will return NaN

Note:- Remember this, if you want to convert or parse to float value then Math.floor() and Math.ceil() function is not a good choice because both the function always converts the strings to the nearest integer equivalent.

Convert String To Number by Using Unary Operator

Unary Operator: Operators that operate on one operand are known as unary operators . Here we use the Plus (+) sign before the string value and it is the fastest way.

Code — Convert String To Number by Using Unary Operator

var a = +'10,000' //it will return NaN var b = +'10.000' //it will return 10 var c = +'10.00' //it will return 10 var d = +'10.20' //it will return 10.2 var e = +'10.81' //it will return 10.81 var f = +'100' //it will return 100 var g = +'100 hello' //it will return NaN 

Convert String To Number by multiplying with 1(*1)

It is the fastest option and behaves like + unary operator.

Code — Convert String To Number by multiplying with 1(*1)

var a = '10,000' * 1 //it will return NaN var b = '10.000' * 1 //it will return 10 var c = '10.00' * 1 //it will return 10 var d = '10.20' * 1 //it will return 10.2 var e = '10.81' * 1 //it will return 10.81 var f = '100' * 1 //it will return 100 var g = '100 hello' * 1 //it will return NaN

Convert String To Number by Adding Double tilde(~~) before String

Code — Convert String To Number by Adding Double tilde(~~) before String

var a = ~~'10,000' //it will return 0 var b = ~~'10.000' //it will return 10 var c = ~~'10.00' //it will return 10 var d = ~~'10.20' //it will return 10 var e = ~~'10.81' //it will return 10 var f = ~~'100' //it will return 100 var g = ~~'100 hello' //it will return 0

How to convert a CSS px width or height value to int with javascript

If you want to alter an elements CSS width or height, you must first convert this value to an integer, because the CSS value can have units like px, cm etc.
To convert this value to an integer in javascript, use:

 // Convert a css px value to int. function ConvertCssPxToInt(cssPxValueText) < // Set valid characters for numeric number. var validChars = "0123456789."; // If conversion fails return 0. var convertedValue = 0; // Loop all characters of for (i = 0; i < cssPxValueText.length; i++) < // Stop search for valid numeric characters, when a none numeric number is found. if (validChars.indexOf(cssPxValueText.charAt(i)) == -1) < // Start conversion if at least one character is valid. if (i > 0) < // Convert validnumbers to int and return result. convertedValue = parseInt(cssPxValueText.substring(0, i)); return convertedValue; > > > return convertedValue; >

Simple parseInt(cssPxValueText) function build in javascript will do. Funny functionality of that function anyway :>.

function ConvertCssPxToInt(cssPxValueText) <
return parseInt(cssPxValueText.substring(cssPxValueText.length – 2, cssPxValueText.length));
>
