How to check if value is number

Question

I have this function :

 $scope.SearchTicketEvent = function (ticketPinOrEvent)
            {
                if (ticketPinOrEvent != undefined)
                      


        

Answer 1

You might use the typeof to test if a variable is number.

if (typeof ticketPinOrEvent === 'number') {
    $scope.PinTicketSearch(ticketPinOrEvent);
}

Or might try this:

if (!isNaN(ticketPinOrEvent) && angular.isNumber(ticketPinOrEvent)) {
    $scope.PinTicketSearch(ticketPinOrEvent);
}

Testing against NaN:

NaN compares unequal (via ==, !=, ===, and !==) to any other value -- including to another NaN value. Use Number.isNaN() or isNaN() to most clearly determine whether a value is NaN. Or perform a self-comparison: NaN, and only NaN, will compare unequal to itself.
