ee.Number.float
Casts the input value to a 32-bit float.
Usage | Returns |
---|
Number.float() | Number |
Argument | Type | Details |
---|
this: input | Number | The input value. |
Examples
// Declare an ee.Number.
var number = ee.Number(100);
print('ee.Number:', number);
// Cast a number to signed 32-bit floating point.
var floatNumber = number.float();
print('ee.Number cast to float:', floatNumber);
Python setup
See the
Python Environment page for information on the Python API and using
geemap
for interactive development.
import ee
import geemap.core as geemap
# Declare an ee.Number.
number = ee.Number(100)
print('ee.Number:', number.getInfo())
# Cast a number to signed 32-bit floating point.
float_number = number.float()
print('ee.Number cast to float:', float_number.getInfo())

The `Number.float()` method is used, taking a number as input. It returns a new number, which is the floating-point representation of the input. The examples demonstrate this process using both JavaScript and Python, showing how to initialize a number and then apply the `float()` method to it. The input can be any number.\n"]]
