# @validatem/is-number
*This validator is designed to be used with [Validatem](https://validatem.cryto.net/), the universal and composable validation library.*
Validates that a given input is a number.
Note that this only accepts actual numbers, not numeric strings; if you are trying to validate a numeric string, you should use [@validatem/is-numeric](https://www.npmjs.com/package/@validatem/is-numeric) instead.
## License, donations, and other boilerplate
Licensed under either the [WTFPL](http://www.wtfpl.net/txt/copying/) or [CC0](https://creativecommons.org/publicdomain/zero/1.0/), at your choice. In practice, that means it's more or less public domain, and you can do whatever you want with it. Giving credit is *not* required, but still very much appreciated! I'd love to [hear from you](mailto:admin@cryto.net) if this module was useful to you.
Creating and maintaining open-source modules is a lot of work. A donation is also not required, but much appreciated! You can donate [here](http://cryto.net/~joepie91/donate.html).
## Example
A runnable version of this example is included in the repository, as `example.js`.
```js
"use strict";
const { validateValue } = require("@validatem/core");
const isNumber = require("@validatem/is-number");
console.log(validateValue(42, [ isNumber ])); // 42
console.log(validateValue("hello world", [ isNumber ])); /*
AggregrateValidationError: One or more validation errors occurred:
- At (root): Must be a number
*/
```
## API
__If you are new to Validatem,__ please read the documentation on the [Validatem website](https://validatem.cryto.net/) first - it will explain how the general API works, and how you should use validator modules with it.
### isNumber
Not callable. Validates that the input is a number. When validation passes, it returns the original number as-is.
Possible error codes:
- __validatem.is-number.number:__ The input was not a number.
- __validatem.is-number.nan:__ The input was NaN.
