Question

I have 2,299.00 as a string and I am trying to parse it to a number. I tried using parseFloat, which results in 2. I guess the comma is the problem, but how would I solve this issue the right way? Just remove the comma?

var x = parseFloat("2,299.00")
console.log(x);

Answer 1

Yes remove the commas:

let output = parseFloat("2,299.00".replace(/,/g, ''));
console.log(output);
