(Built-in) way in JavaScript to check if a string is a valid number

Question

I\'m hoping there\'s something in the same conceptual space as the old VB6 IsNumeric() function?

Answer 1

Well, I'm using this one I made...

It's been working so far:

function checkNumber(value) {
    return value % 1 == 0;
}

If you spot any problem with it, tell me, please.
