The Number.parseInt() method parses a string argument and returns an integer of the specified radix or base.
Syntax
Number.parseInt(string[, radix])Parameters
string- The value to parse. If
stringis not a string, then it is converted to a string (using theToStringabstract operation). Leading whitespace in the string is ignored.
radix- An integer between 2 and 36 that represents the radix (the base in mathematical numeral systems) of the above mentioned string. Specify
10for the decimal numeral system commonly used by humans. Always specify this parameter to eliminate reader confusion and to guarantee predictable behavior. Different implementations produce different results when a radix is not specified, usually defaulting the value to 10.
Description
This method is completely the same function with the global parseInt() function:
Number.parseInt === parseInt; // true
and is part of ECMAScript 6 (its purpose is modularization of globals). Please see parseInt() for more details and examples.

Number.parseInt = parseInt;
