How can I make sure that whaveter is in the text box is only 1's and 0's for binary?

I have a app right now that converts binary to dec, hex and octal however I would like for it to alert the user if the input is not a binary number and tell them to try again. This is my code so far.
function isStringBinary() {
var x = document.getElementById('binary').value;
x = x.split('');
for (var i = 0; i < x.length; i++) {
if (x[i] !== 1 || x[i] !== 0) {
alert('false');
}}}
Any ideas? I would like to stick with the if and for loop though..

NOTE! ("1" == 1) will evaluate to true.
("1" === 1) will evaluate false.
You are comparing a string to an integer above so it will always fail.
(However, I would go with Dave's solution anyway).

Here's a simple binary validator using Regular Expressions, which is a simpler implementation, especially when you start adding octal and hexadecimal.
var binary = document.getElementById("binary");
binary.addEventListener("input", function(e) {
var validator = document.getElementById("validator");
var text = e.target.value;
if (text.match(/^[0|1]+$/))
validator.innerHTML = "Valid Binary";
else
validator.innerHTML = "Not Valid Binary";
});
<input id="binary" />
<span id="validator" />

Javascript Logical Operator not validating

A simple javascript logical operator validation is not working for me.
eg. Target Price should not be greater than orginal price
x = input from user;
y = 1000; // fixed
if(x > 1000 )
{
alert ( x+'should not be greater than'+y);
}
else
{
alert ( ' proceed' );
}
here is my EXAMPLE

Those values are of type string, you need to convert them to number. You can use Number() for that.
targetPrice = Number($('#pdiwap_dropamt').val());
orginalPrice = Number($('#orgprice_wap').val());

You are compering two strings. Use something like this
if (parseInt(targetPrice) > parseInt(orginalPrice))

Because both the operands string so it does a string comparison.
You can convert the values to a number and then do the comparison like
targetPrice = +$('#pdiwap_dropamt').val();
orginalPrice = +$('#orgprice_wap').val();

Just use the parseInt function to validate correctly. Bucause html input gives the value in string format.
if (parseInt(targetPrice,10) > parseInt(orginalPrice,10))

I think the problem is from the input you're getting which is seen as a string. Try converting to integer first before comparing.
e.g x = parseInt(Input from user);

Yes! it input value is a string so its not validate properly.
Try This.
var x = document.getElementById("input").value;
var y = 1000;
if(!isNaN(x) && x < 1000) {
alert ('proceed' );
} else {
alert(x+'should not be greater than'+y);
}

format decimal in javascript

i would like to format decimal values to specific format as like
1.23 should be shown as 0001.23 using javascript. is there any specific functions like toPrecision(), tofixed() in javascript to handle these kind of formatting or any pointers to go ahead with any solutions?
here preceeding decimal is dynamic one.
for example :
i have 2 values :
first value : 99.4545
second value : 100.32
in this second value has higher length (3)before decimal and first value has higher length after decimal(4). so subtracted result(0.8655) of this should be formatted as ###.#### (000.8685)
thank you

Just make a function that does what you want it to. Here is an example you can expand on if you want.
function pad(num, padSize){
var numString = "" + num.split('.')[0];
if(num.length < padSize){
var numZeroes = padSize-num.length;
var zeroes = "";
while(numZeroes){zeroes += "0"; numZeroes--;}
return zeroes + num;
}else return num;
}

if you want to lpad some 0 onto 1.23 you can do the following
var value = 1.23
value = ("0000000"+ value).slice(-7);
Change the -7 to be whatever you want the total string length including the decimal point to be.
Added after question edit
The above should handle your question pre-edit but for the rest of it you'll need something like this.
var formatNum = function (num, preLen, postLen) {
var value = num.split("."),
padstring = "0";
padLen = (preLen > postLen)?preLen:postLen;
for (i = 0; i < padLen; i++) {
padstring += padstring;
}
if (typeof(value[1]) === "undefined") {
value[1] = "0";
}
return ((padstring + value[0]).slice(-preLen)+ "." + (value[1] + padstring).substring(0,postLen));
}
This takes the number you want formatted and the lengths you want each string to be on either side of the '.'. It also handles the case of an integer.
If you want it to output any other cases such as returning an integer, you'll have to add that in.

Try to use a string, like "000" + some value

jQuery Validation, Numeric Value Only

I'm trying to validate a form input value. The function below states is the value of the input is a number below 150, show error. Works as it should. However, I want to add to it. If the value contains ANYTHING other than a numeric value AND/OR is a value under 150, show error...
How can I modify?
if ($('.billboard-height').val() < 150) {
$('.sb-billboardalert').fadeIn(600);
}

Since your more thorough validation should be on the server-side anyway, you could just use parseInt or parseFloat depending on what sort of value you are expecting. Then check if the result is actually a number and that it also meets your constraints:
var number = parseFloat($('.billboard-height').val()); // or parseInt depending on expected input
if (isNaN(number) || number < 150) {
$('.sb-billboardalert').fadeIn(600);
}
EDIT:
Based on your comments, you are entering regex land. I gather you only ever want a natural number (and the way parseInt/parseFloat ignores trailing non-numeric characters like px, em, etc. is not ok). How about:
var val = $('.billboard-height').val();
var number = parseInt(val, 10);
if ( ! val.match(/^[0-9]{3,4}$/) || number < 150) {
$('.sb-billboardalert').fadeIn(600);
}
This should only allow natural numbers 150-9999.

I would suggest using regexes:
var intRegex = /^\d+$/;
var floatRegex = /^((\d+(\.\d *)?)|((\d*\.)?\d+))$/;
var str = $('#myTextBox').val();
if(intRegex.test(str) || floatRegex.test(str)) {
alert('I am a number');
...
}
Or with a single regex as per #Platinum Azure's suggestion:
var numberRegex = /^[+-]?\d+(\.\d+)?([eE][+-]?\d+)?$/;
var str = $('#myTextBox').val();
if(numberRegex.test(str)) {
alert('I am a number');
...
}
ref: checking if number entered is a digit in jquery

Don't forget the radix parameter in parseInt():
if (parseInt($('.billboard-height').val(), 10) < 150) {
It's probably faster than using a regex. Regular expressions are not known for being fast, but they are very powerful. It might be overkill for this scenario.

You can try out HTML5's built in form validation:
<input type="number" min="150">
browser support is still pretty shakey though

Any value from an input or select will be a string in javascript. You need to use parseInt() to use operators like > or <. == can be used if you use it to compare to a string like if ($('.billboard-height').val() == "150")

Try parseInt and isNaN functions for check if value is number and less than 150:
var intVal = parseInt($('.billboard-height').val());
if(!isNaN(intVal)){ //not Number
if (parseInt($('.billboard-height').val()) < 150) { //not less than 150
$('.sb-billboardalert').fadeIn(600);
}
}

If you need to support floating point numbers, you can check if a variable is valid using:
function isNumber (n) {
return !isNaN(parseFloat(n)) && isFinite(n);
}
var val = $('.billboard-height').val();
if (isNumber(val) && parseFloat(val) < 150) {
$('.sb-billboardalert').fadeIn(600);
}
If you only need to support integers, use parseInt(n, 10), where 10 is the base to convert the string to.
var val = parseInt($('.billboard-height').val(), 10);
if (val && val < 150) {
$('.sb-billboardalert').fadeIn(600);
}

// Displays an alert if s contains a non-numeric character.
function alertForNonNumeric(s) {
var rgx = /[^0-9]/;
if (s.search(rgx) !== -1) {
alert("Input contains non-numeric characters!");
}
}
JS Fiddle here
NOTE: If you want to check for negative ints as well, you can add a minus sign to the regex:
function alertForNonNumeric(s) {
var rgx = /[^0-9-]/;
if (s.search(rgx) !== -1) {
alert(s + " contains non-numeric characters!");
}
}

I use this solution, I find it quite ellegant - no alerts, user is effectively unable to enter non numeric characters.
This is jQuery example:
function digitsOnly(){
// extract only numbers from input
var num_val = $('#only_numbers').val().match(/\d+/);
$('#only_numbers').val(num_val);
}
Your html:
<input type="text" name="only_numbers" id="only_numbers" on oninput="digitsOnly();"/>

How to parse float with two decimal places in javascript?

I have the following code. I would like to have it such that if price_result equals an integer, let's say 10, then I would like to add two decimal places. So 10 would be 10.00.
Or if it equals 10.6 would be 10.60. Not sure how to do this.
price_result = parseFloat(test_var.split('$')[1].slice(0,-1));

You can use toFixed() to do that
var twoPlacedFloat = parseFloat(yourString).toFixed(2)

If you need performance (like in games):
Math.round(number * 100) / 100
It's about 100 times as fast as parseFloat(number.toFixed(2))
http://jsperf.com/parsefloat-tofixed-vs-math-round

When you use toFixed, it always returns the value as a string. This sometimes complicates the code. To avoid that, you can make an alternative method for Number.
Number.prototype.round = function(p) {
p = p || 10;
return parseFloat( this.toFixed(p) );
};
and use:
var n = 22 / 7; // 3.142857142857143
n.round(3); // 3.143
or simply:
(22/7).round(3); // 3.143

To return a number, add another layer of parentheses. Keeps it clean.
var twoPlacedFloat = parseFloat((10.02745).toFixed(2));

If your objective is to parse, and your input might be a literal, then you'd expect a float and toFixed won't provide that, so here are two simple functions to provide this:
function parseFloat2Decimals(value) {
return parseFloat(parseFloat(value).toFixed(2));
}
function parseFloat2Decimals(value,decimalPlaces) {
return parseFloat(parseFloat(value).toFixed(decimalPlaces));
}

ceil from lodash is probably the best
_.ceil("315.9250488",2)
_.ceil(315.9250488,2)
_.ceil(undefined,2)
_.ceil(null,2)
_.ceil("",2)
will work also with a number and it's safe

You can use .toFixed() to for float value 2 digits
Exampale
let newValue = parseFloat(9.990000).toFixed(2)
//output
9.99

I have tried this for my case and it'll work fine.
var multiplied_value = parseFloat(given_quantity*given_price).toFixed(3);
Sample output:
9.007

parseFloat(parseFloat(amount).toFixed(2))
You have to parse it twice. The first time is to convert the string to a float, then fix it to two decimals (but the toFixed returns a string), and finally parse it again.

Please use below function if you don't want to round off.
function ConvertToDecimal(num) {
num = num.toString(); //If it's not already a String
num = num.slice(0, (num.indexOf(".")) + 3); //With 3 exposing the hundredths place
alert('M : ' + Number(num)); //If you need it back as a Number
}

For what its worth: A decimal number, is a decimal number, you either round it to some other value or not. Internally, it will approximate a decimal fraction according to the rule of floating point arthmetic and handling. It stays a decimal number (floating point, in JS a double) internally, no matter how you many digits you want to display it with.
To present it for display, you can choose the precision of the display to whatever you want by string conversion. Presentation is a display issue, not a storage thing.

Short Answer: There is no way in JS to have Number datatype value with trailing zeros after a decimal.
Long Answer: Its the property of toFixed or toPrecision function of JavaScript, to return the String. The reason for this is that the Number datatype cannot have value like a = 2.00, it will always remove the trailing zeros after the decimal, This is the inbuilt property of Number Datatype. So to achieve the above in JS we have 2 options
Either use data as a string or
Agree to have truncated value with case '0' at the end ex 2.50 -> 2.5.

You can store your price as a string
You can use
Number(string)
for your calculations.
example
Number("34.50") == 34.5
also
Number("35.65") == 35.65
If you're comfortable with the Number function , you can go with it.

Try this (see comments in code):
function fixInteger(el) {
// this is element's value selector, you should use your own
value = $(el).val();
if (value == '') {
value = 0;
}
newValue = parseInt(value);
// if new value is Nan (when input is a string with no integers in it)
if (isNaN(newValue)) {
value = 0;
newValue = parseInt(value);
}
// apply new value to element
$(el).val(newValue);
}
function fixPrice(el) {
// this is element's value selector, you should use your own
value = $(el).val();
if (value == '') {
value = 0;
}
newValue = parseFloat(value.replace(',', '.')).toFixed(2);
// if new value is Nan (when input is a string with no integers in it)
if (isNaN(newValue)) {
value = 0;
newValue = parseFloat(value).toFixed(2);
}
// apply new value to element
$(el).val(newValue);
}

Solution for FormArray controllers
Initialize FormArray form Builder
formInitilize() {
this.Form = this._formBuilder.group({
formArray: this._formBuilder.array([this.createForm()])
});
}
Create Form
createForm() {
return (this.Form = this._formBuilder.group({
convertodecimal: ['']
}));
}
Set Form Values into Form Controller
setFormvalues() {
this.Form.setControl('formArray', this._formBuilder.array([]));
const control = <FormArray>this.resourceBalanceForm.controls['formArray'];
this.ListArrayValues.forEach((x) => {
control.push(this.buildForm(x));
});
}
private buildForm(x): FormGroup {
const bindvalues= this._formBuilder.group({
convertodecimal: x.ArrayCollection1? parseFloat(x.ArrayCollection1[0].name).toFixed(2) : '' // Option for array collection
// convertodecimal: x.number.toFixed(2) --- option for two decimal value
});
return bindvalues;
}

I've got other solution.
You can use round() to do that instead toFixed()
var twoPlacedFloat = parseFloat(yourString).round(2)

The solution that work for me is the following
parseFloat(value)
