Yup, Javascript can go F@#! itself
(lemmy.ml)
Post funny things about programming here! (Or just rant about your favourite programming language.)
parseInt is meant for strings so it converts the number there into a string. Once the numbers get small enough it starts representing it with scientific notation. So
0.0000001
converts into"1e-7"
where it then starts to ignore thee-7
part because that's not a valid int, so it is left with1
