The Number object represents numerical date, either integers or floating-point numbers. In general, you do not need to worry about Number objects because the browser automatically converts number literals to instances of the number class.

Syntax:

Creating a number object:
var val = new Number(number);
If the argument cannot be converted into a number, it returns NaN (Not-a-Number).

Number Properties:

Here is a list of each property and its description.
PropertyDescription
MAX_VALUEThe largest possible value a number in JavaScript can have 1.7976931348623157E+308
MIN_VALUEThe smallest possible value a number in JavaScript can have 5E-324
NaNEqual to a value that is not a number.
NEGATIVE_INFINITYA value that is less than MIN_VALUE.
POSITIVE_INFINITYA value that is greater than MAX_VALUE
prototypeA static property of the Number object. Use the prototype property to assign new properties and methods to the Number object in the current document
