Answer 1

write a js function to do it for you?

something like

var presentInteger = function(toPresent) {
    if (toPresent > 0) return "+" + toPresent;
    else return "" + toPresent;
}

you could also use the conditional operator:

var stringed = (toPresent > 0) ? "+" + toPresent : "" + toPresent;

Thanx to the comments for pointing out that "-" + toPresent would put a double -- on the string....

Answer 2

function format(n) {
    return (n>0?'+':'') + n;
}

Answer 3

printableNumber = function(n) { return (n > 0) ? "+" + n : n; };

Answer 4

You can use a simple expression like this:

(n<0?"":"+") + n

The conditional expression results in a plus sign if the number is positive, and an empty string if the number is negative.

You haven't specified how to handle zero, so I assumed that it would be displayed as +0. If you want to display it as just 0, use the <= operator instead:

(n<=0?"":"+") + n

Answer 5

something along the lines of:

if (num > 0)
{
   numa = "+" + num;
}
else
{
   numa = num.toString();
}

and then print the string numa.

Answer 6

Modern syntax solution.

It also includes a space between sign and number:

function getNumberWithSign(input) {
  if (input === 0) {
    return "0"
  }

  const sign = input < 0 ? '-' : '+';

  return `${sign} ${Math.abs(input)}`;
}
