Number Methods

These are utility methods for handling numbers.

toNumber(value)

Converts value to a number.

Usage

import { toNumber } from 'xfunc'

toNumber('42')
// => 42

toNumber('3.14')
// => 3.14

toNumber([42])
// => 42

toNumber('invalid')
// => NaN

Arguments

1. value (any): The value to convert

Returns

(number): Returns the converted number

randomInt([lower=0], [upper=1])

Generates a random integer within the specified range.

Usage

import { randomInt } from 'xfunc'

randomInt(0, 5)
// => Integer between 0 and 5 (inclusive)

randomInt(5)
// => Integer between 0 and 5 (inclusive)

randomInt(10, 20)
// => Integer between 10 and 20 (inclusive)

randomInt(-5, 5)
// => Integer between -5 and 5 (inclusive)

Arguments

1. [lower=0] (number): The lower bound
2. [upper=1] (number): The upper bound

Returns

(number): Returns a random integer within the specified range

Notes

• If only one argument is provided, it's used as the upper bound with lower bound as 0
• Automatically handles bounds ordering (swaps if lower > upper)
• Returns inclusive random integers (both bounds are possible results)
