Avoid numbers that lose precision
ID: typescript-best-practices/no-loss-of-precision
Language: TypeScript
Severity: Error
Category: Best Practices
Description
JavaScript uses double-precision, floating-point numbers in accordance with the IEEE 754 standard. This means numbers are only accurate until a certain amount of digits. Adding more digits will make the number lose precision, as the added digits will be lost in the conversion to the Number type, causing unexpected behavior.
