How to parse string "000" to number in JavaScript

Question

I have string "000" and I want to convert it to a number 000.

parseInt and Number parse it to 0.

I try this:

const number      = '0000';
const parseNumber = parseInt(number, 10);

console.log(parseNumber); // the output is 0 :/

thanks :)

Your string is 0000, not 000.

Actually, there is no way to do this because 000 is equivalent to 0! If you want to do some arithmetic operations then simply use 0. If you want to just output 000, then use it as a string.
