JavaScript Number toExponential() method is used to convert a number to its exponential form. It returns a string representing the Number object in exponential notation. The toExponential() method is used with a number as shown in the above syntax using the ‘.’ operator. This method will convert a number to its exponential form.
Syntax:
number.toExponential(value)
Parameters: This method accepts a single parameter value.
Return Value: The toExponential() method in JavaScript returns a string representing the given number in exponential notation with one digit before the decimal point.
Below is an example of the Number toExponential() Method:
Example 1:
JavaScript
let num = 212.13456;
console.log(num.toExponential(4));
Output:
Output :2.1213e+2
Example 2: Passing a number as an argument in the toExponential() method. If a number is passed as an argument to the toExponential() method then it represents the number of digits after the decimal point.
JavaScript
let num = 2.13456;
console.log(num.toExponential(2));
Output:
2.13e+0
Example 3: Passing no parameter in the toExponential() method. The below program illustrates this.
JavaScript
let num = 2.13456;
console.log(num.toExponential());
Output:
2.13456e+0
Example 4: Passing a value that has more than 1 digit before the decimal point in the toExponential() method. The below program illustrates this:.
JavaScript
let num=212.13456;
console.log(num.toExponential());
Output:
2.1213456e+2
Example 5: Passing zero as a parameter in the toExponential() method. The below program illustrates this.
JavaScript
let num = 212.13456;
