reverseNumber javascript Code Snippet in 2025

Reverses a number.

• Use Object.prototype.toString() to convert n to a string.
• Use String.prototype.split(''), Array.prototype.reverse() and String.prototype.join('') to get the reversed value of n as a string.
• Use parseFloat() to convert the string to a number and Math.sign() to preserve its sign.

const reverseNumber = n => 
  parseFloat(`${n}`.split('').reverse().join('')) * Math.sign(n);

reverseNumber(981); // 189

reverseNumber(73.6); // 6.37
