Definition and Usage
The Number.isFinite() method determines whether a value is a finite number.
This method returns true if the value is of the type Number, and equates to a finite number. Otherwise it returns false.
Number.isFinite()
is different from the global isFinite() function. The global isFinite() function converts the tested value to a Number, then tests it.Number.isFinite()
does not convert the values to a Number, and will not return true for any value that is not of the type Number.Browser Support
