in Javascript I can't seem to find a method to set negatives to zero? -90 becomes 0 -45 becomes 0 0 becomes 0 90 becomes 90 Is there anything like that? I have just rounded numbers.

Just do something like <pre class="prettyprint"><code>value = value < 0 ? 0 : value; </code></pre> or <pre class="prettyprint"><code>if (value < 0) value = 0; </code></pre> or <pre class="prettyprint"><code>value = Math.max(0, value); </code></pre>

Why does JavaScript have negative zero?

This is because JavaScript implements the IEEE Standard for Floating-Point Arithmetic (IEEE 754), which has signed zeroes. Here is how Wikipedia explains signed zeroes: “Signed zero is zero with an associated sign. In ordinary arithmetic, the number 0 does not have a sign, so that −0, +0 and 0 are identical.

How do you pass negative values in JavaScript?

To use negative numbers, just place a minus (-) character before the number we want to turn into a negative value: let temperature = -42; What we've seen in this section makes up the bulk of how we will actually use numbers.

Just do something like

value = value < 0 ? 0 : value;

or

if (value < 0) value = 0;

or

value = Math.max(0, value);
