api

.extend(name, isGetter, fn)

You can extend the Number prototype with number.extend()

  • name - A string name of the function being added to the Number prototype
  • isGetter - A Boolean indicating whether the fn handle is a getter function
  • fn - A function handle to add to the Number prototype

example

Setter the isGetter flag to true will define the property as a getter:

number.extend('sqrt', true, function () {
  return Math.sqrt(this);
});
 
console.log((4).sqrt); // 2

We can create a function that calculates the GCD (Greatest Common Divisor:

number.extend('gcd', function (y) {
  var x = this
  y = y || 0;
  while (!= 0) {
    var z = x % y;
    x = y;
    y = z;
  }
  
  return Math.abs(x);
});
 
(3).gcd(-7); // 1
