isFinite()

The isFinite() function determines whether a value is finite, first converting the value to a number if necessary. A finite number is one that’s not NaN or ±Infinity. Because coercion inside the isFinite() function can be surprising, you may prefer to use Number.isFinite().

isFinite() is a function property of the global object.

When the argument to the isFinite() function is not of type Number, the value is first coerced to a number, and the resulting value is then compared against NaN and ±Infinity. This is as confusing as the behavior of isNaN — for example, isFinite(“1”) is true.

Syntax example: isFinite(value)
