Function: deconstructNumber()

function deconstructNumber(input: number, precision: number): DeconstructedNumber & {
  fractional: DeconstructedNumber;
  whole: DeconstructedNumber;
};

Defined in: deconstruct-number.ts:29

Deconstructs a number into its sign, value, mantissa, and exponent, and separates its whole and fractional parts.

Parameters

Parameter	Type	Default value	Description
input	number	undefined	The number to deconstruct. Must be a finite number.
precision	number	9	The number of significant digits to use (default: 9, min: 1, max: 15).

Returns

An object containing the normalized value, sign, mantissa, exponent, and separate representations of the whole and fractional parts.

Throws

TypeError If the input is NaN or not a finite number.

Example

const result = deconstructNumber(123.456);
// result = {
//   value: 123.456,
//   sign: 1,
//   mantissa: "123456",
//   exponent: 2,
//   whole: { ... },
//   fraction: { ... }
// }
