The _.isNumeric() method checks whether the given value is a Numeric value or not, and returns the corresponding boolean value. It can be a string containing a numeric value, exponential notation or a Number object, etc.

_.isNumeric( value );

Parameters: 

  • value: Given value to be checked for Numeric value.

var _ = require('underscore-contrib'); 
  
// Checking
console.log("The Value is Numeric : " 
    + _.isNumeric(10000)); 


Output:

The Value is Numeric : true

Example 2: An array will always return false. 

Javascript




// Defining underscore contrib variable
var _ = require('underscore-contrib'); 
  
// Checking
console.log("The Value is Numeric : " 
    + _.isNumeric([1,10])); 


Output:
