how to use the tofinite function from lodash in javascript

The toFinite function from the Lodash library is used to convert any value to a finite number. It accepts one argument and returns the converted finite number. If the given value cannot be converted to a finite number, then 0 is returned.

Here's an example of how to use toFinite function in JavaScript:

index.tsx
// Importing toFinite function from lodash library
const { toFinite } = require("lodash");

// Examples of using toFinite function
console.log(toFinite(3.2)); // Output: 3.2
console.log(toFinite(Number.MIN_VALUE)); // Output: 5e-324
console.log(toFinite(Infinity)); // Output: 1.7976931348623157e+308
console.log(toFinite('3.2')); // Output: 3.2
console.log(toFinite('abc')); // Output: 0

In this example, we first import the toFinite function from the Lodash library using require. We then use console.log() to print the results of calling toFinite with different values.

Note that toFinite also converts strings that represent numbers to the corresponding number value. However, if the string cannot be converted to a number, then 0 is returned.
