isFinite() - JavaScript | MDN

Baseline Widely available

The isFinite() function determines whether a value is finite, first converting the value to a number if necessary. A finite number is one that's not NaN or ±Infinity. Because coercion inside the isFinite() function can be surprising, you may prefer to use Number.isFinite().

function div(x) {
  if (isFinite(1000 / x)) {
    return "Number is NOT Infinity.";
  }
  return "Number is Infinity!";
}

console.log(div(0));
// Expected output: "Number is Infinity!""

console.log(div(1));
// Expected output: "Number is NOT Infinity."

value

The value to be tested.

false if the given value is NaN, Infinity, or -Infinity after being converted to a number; otherwise, true.

isFinite() is a function property of the global object.

When the argument to the isFinite() function is not of type Number, the value is first coerced to a number, and the resulting value is then compared against NaN and ±Infinity. This is as confusing as the behavior of isNaN — for example, isFinite("1") is true.

Number.isFinite() is a more reliable way to test whether a value is a finite number value, because it returns false for any non-number input.

isFinite(Infinity); // false
isFinite(NaN); // false
isFinite(-Infinity); // false

isFinite(0); // true
isFinite(2e64); // true
isFinite(910); // true

// Would've been false with the more robust Number.isFinite():
isFinite(null); // true
isFinite("0"); // true
