Javascript alert on incomplete variables












2















i'm having troubles on javascript arithmetic.
lets say i have 2 elements from html,



var num1 = document.getElementByID('one').value;

var num2 = docuemnt.getElementByID('two').value;



var total = num1 + num2;



alert(total);


these two elements are inputted by users. lets say the user left the id='one' blank. how do i make javascript still compute and alert 'total'? can javascript automatically set the blank field to '0'? i tried this on my project but it will only give me an alert if both 'one' and 'two' were given/inputted. maybe i'm missing something.



Thanks for any help.



ok this is the code i'm using on my project,



var number = document.getElementById('child1').value;

var hrs = document.getElementById('hrs1').value;

var qty = document.getElementById('qty1').value;

var watts = qty * (number / 1000);

var kwh = watts * hrs;

var kwhh = kwh * 30;



var number2 = document.getElementById('child2').value;

var hrs2 = document.getElementById('hrs2').value;

var qty2 = document.getElementById('qty2').value;

var watts2 = qty2 * (number2 / 1000);

var kwh2 = watts2 * hrs2;

var kwhh2 = kwh2 * 30;



var totalperhr = kwh+kwh2;

var totalper30 = kwhh+kwhh2;



alert(totalperhr + ' kwh per dayn' + totalper30 + ' kwh per 30 days');


html below,



<input type="range" min="1" max="1000" id="child1">

<select id="hrs1">

    <option value='1'>1hr</option>

    <option value='2'>2hr</option>

    <option value='3'>3hr</option>

</select>

<select id="qty1">

    <option value='1'>1</option>

    <option value='2'>2</option>

    <option value='2'>3</option>

</select>



<input type="range" min="1" max="1000" id="child2">

<select id="hrs2">

    <option value='1'>1hr</option>

    <option value='2'>2hr</option>

    <option value='3'>3hr</option>

</select>

<select id="qty2">

    <option value='1'>1</option>

    <option value='2'>2</option>

    <option value='2'>3</option>

</select>


as you can see, i'm going thru several operations then getting the grand total. but i'm not getting any alerts if i leave one blank.

    Sounds odd, it shouldn't throw an error - if the value is empty, it will default to the empty string, which is perfectly concatenatable

You can use Unary plus (+) operator to get the number out of the value property of your input, or set it to 0:



+document.getElementById('one').value || 0;


Code example:






const num1 = +document.getElementById('one').value || 0;

const num2 = +document.getElementById('two').value || 0;



const total = num1 + num2;



console.log(total);

<input type="number" value="5" name="one" id="one">

<input type="number" value="" name="two" id="two">





Note: instead of document.getElementByID() you should write document.getElementById()



Your code:






const elements = document.querySelectorAll('#child1, #hrs1, #qty1, #child2, #hrs2, #qty2');

const values = {

  child1: 0,

  hrs1: 0,

  qty1: 0,

  child2: 0,

  hrs2: 0,

  qty2: 0

};

const getTotals = () => {

  elements.forEach(elem => values[elem.id] = +elem.value || 0);



  const watts = values.qty1 * (values.child1 / 1000);

  const kwh = watts * values.hrs1;

  const kwhh = kwh * 30;



  const watts2 = values.qty2 * (values.child2 / 1000);

  const kwh2 = watts2 * values.hrs2;

  const kwhh2 = kwh2 * 30;



  const totalperhr = kwh + kwh2;

  const totalper30 = kwhh + kwhh2;



  console.clear();

  console.log(values);

  console.log(totalperhr + ' kwh per dayn' + totalper30 + ' kwh per 30 days');

};



elements.forEach(elem => elem.addEventListener('change', getTotals));

<input type="range" min="1" max="1000" id="child1">

<select id="hrs1">

  <option value=""></option>

  <option value="1">1hr</option>

  <option value="2">2hr</option>

</select>

<select id="qty1">

Note: instead of document.getElementByID() you should write document.getElementById()



Your code:






const elements = document.querySelectorAll('#child1, #hrs1, #qty1, #child2, #hrs2, #qty2');

const values = {

  child1: 0,

  hrs1: 0,

  qty1: 0,

  child2: 0,

  hrs2: 0,

  qty2: 0

};

const getTotals = () => {

  elements.forEach(elem => values[elem.id] = +elem.value || 0);



  const watts = values.qty1 * (values.child1 / 1000);

  const kwh = watts * values.hrs1;

  const kwhh = kwh * 30;



  const watts2 = values.qty2 * (values.child2 / 1000);

  const kwh2 = watts2 * values.hrs2;

  const kwhh2 = kwh2 * 30;



  const totalperhr = kwh + kwh2;

  const totalper30 = kwhh + kwhh2;



  console.clear();

  console.log(values);

  console.log(totalperhr + ' kwh per dayn' + totalper30 + ' kwh per 30 days');

};



elements.forEach(elem => elem.addEventListener('change', getTotals));

You can use Unary plus (+) operator to get the number out of the value property of your input, or set it to 0:



+document.getElementById('one').value || 0;


Code example:






const num1 = +document.getElementById('one').value || 0;

const num2 = +document.getElementById('two').value || 0;



const total = num1 + num2;



console.log(total);

<input type="number" value="5" name="one" id="one">

<input type="number" value="" name="two" id="two">

  • -1, the answer is misleading. As @CertainPerformance has pointed out "if the value is empty, it will default to the empty string, which is perfectly concatenatable". I. e., console.log(42 + ''); returns 42. This snippet will also work after removing the unary operator and the || 0.

    @David that is a not good comment. I will never recommend to anybody that uses a string in a matematic operation.. Because if there is a number what will happen?: console.log(42 + '0'); return 420

Quarantine

For other uses, see Quarantine (disambiguation). Signal flag "Lima" called the "Yellow Jack" which when flown in harbor means ship is under quarantine. A simple yellow flag (also called the "Yellow Jack") had historically been used to signal quarantine (it stands for Q among signal flags), but now indicates the opposite, as a signal of a ship free of disease that requests boarding and inspection. A quarantine is used to separate and restrict the movement of people; it is 'a restraint upon the activities or communication of persons or the transport of goods designed to prevent the spread of disease or pests', for a certain period of time. [1] This is often used in connection to disease and illness, such as those who may possibly have been exposed to a communicable disease. [2] The term is often erroneously used to mean medical isolation, which is "to separate ill persons who have a communicable disease from those who are healthy
