Parsing tab delimited file with numbers in Javascript

gistfile1.js

callback = function (body, next) {
      var b = body;
      var res = b.split("\r\n");
      var line1 = res[0].split("\t");
      var collection = [];
      for(var i=1;i<res.length;i++){
        var local = res[i].split("\t");
        var object = new Object();
        for(var i2=0;i2<line1.length;i2++){
          var test = local[i2];
          if(! (typeof test === 'undefined')){
            test = test.trim();
          };
          var parsed = parseFloat(test);
          if(!isNaN(parsed)){
            object[line1[i2]]=parsed;
          }
          object[line1[i2]]=test;
        }
        miao.putKeyValue({
          collection: 'SoldHouse',
          key: uuid.v4(),
          data: object
        },callback);
        collection.push(object);
      }
      this.req.collection = collection;
      return next();
}

At line 18, you always assign the value of test to object[line1[i2]], regardless of whether parsed is or isn’t NaN. 18 should probably be an else statement.

Not sure that is the problem it works fine as is but doesn't make the number into a float it stays a string.

nm I see now
