The EPSILON property has a value of 252 that is approximately 2.2204460492503130808472633361816E-16.
It is a non-writable, non-enumerable, and non-configurable property.
Number.EPSILON can be used to test the equality of the floating-point numbers.
The syntax to access the EPSILON constant is:
Number.EPSILON
EPSILON is accessed using the Number class name.
Example: Using Number.EPSILON
Output
2.220446049250313e-16 false true
In JavaScript, due to how floating-point numbers are implemented, 0.1 + 0.2 is not exactly equal to 0.3. So, instead of using this ordinary checking method that does not work, we can instead check if their difference is smaller than Number.EPSILON.
