There are different kinds of non-number "values" for numeric variables. Is this , Overflow, NaN or N/A?

[–] getFrog@piefed.social 4 points 41 minutes ago (1 children)

I'm a JavaScript girl, I only know about null and undefined. But my guess would be N/A, just by method of elimination?

: They said the N-word, but if we ask "did they say the N-word yesterday?" and go back a day if the answer is no, we will be iterating forever.
Overflow: They said the N-word sometime before Jan 1st 1970.
NaN: Days since the last time they said the N-word: "yes"

[–] ChaoticNeutralCzech@feddit.org 1 points 15 minutes ago

There are actually two interpretations of N/A:

  • N/A (not available): There is lost media so it can't be evaluated.
  • N/A (not applicable): The show is in sign language so evaluating that is outside the scope of this string-matching program.

Meanwhile, undefined seems to mean the value has not yet been evaluated. Maybe null is really the best.
