There is no “Javascript” (see signature), and ECMAScript implementations
like JavaScript, which do not have to be client-side, support, per
Specification, an implementation of IEEE 754 “double-precision” floating-
point values, or “doubles” for short. [1]
In fact, it is up to now the only numeric type supported by those
implementations that is based on a public standard.
You would be well-advised to do considerably more research on the subject
matter before participating in a discussion. (And to stop address munging
and get a real name.)
