| /** | |
| parseInt("123hui") | |
| returns 123 | |
| Number("123hui") | |
| returns NaN | |
| parseInt("1.234334") | |
| returns 1 | |
| Number("1.234334") | |
| returns 1.234334 | |
| In other words parseInt() parses up to the first non-digit and returns whatever it had parsed. Number() wants to convert the entire string into a number, which can also be a float BTW | |
