  1. Converting Numbers to Strings

Fighting Game Example

Imagine that the game allows players to select their characters' attack power before each match. The attack power is a numeric value that determines how much damage the character can inflict on their opponent.

To select their attack power, the player is presented with a form that includes a field for entering a number. The player types in their desired attack power (e.g. "50") and submits the form.

The game could then use the parseInt() function to convert the string value entered by the player into a number that can be used in the game logic.

Here is some example code that demonstrates how this might work:

let attackPowerInput = '50';  // The player enters "50" into the form field
let attackPower = parseInt(attackPowerInput);  // Convert the string to a number

// Use the attack power in the game logic
if (attackPower > 75) {
  console.log('This character is very powerful!');
} else {
  console.log('This character is average in power.');
}

In this example, the player has entered "50" as their attack power. The parseInt() function converts this string to the number 50, which is then used in the game logic to determine the strength of the character.
