Converts the characters 0 through 9, plus, minus, e, E, and the decimal point (usually period) in a string to a floating-point number. This node can process strings that use fractional, exponential, or engineering notation.
Boolean specifying whether to use the system decimal separator to designate a decimal point.
True | This node uses the localized decimal separator. |
False | This node uses a period as the decimal separator. |
Default: FALSE
A numeric value whose representation determines the representation of number.
Default: Extended-precision, floating point
The index in string of the first character following the number.
If string is an array of strings, offset past number reflects the offset within the last string.
The result of converting string into a number. The structure of number matches the structure of string. For example, if string is an array of strings, number is an array of numbers.
If the input string represents a number outside the range of the representation of number, number is set to the maximum value for that representation.
