## Usage
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript

var isSafeInteger = require( '@stdlib/math/base/assert/is-safe-integer' );
|

#### isSafeInteger( x )
|
||
|
|
||
|
Tests if a finite [double-precision floating-point number][ieee754] is a safe `integer`.
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var bool = isSafeInteger( 1.0 );
|
||
|
// returns true
|
||
|
```

## Notes
|
||
|
|
||
|
- An integer valued number is "safe" when the number can be exactly represented as a [double-precision floating-point number][ieee754]. For example,
|
||
|
|
||
|
```javascript
|
||
|
var MAX_SAFE_INTEGER = require( '@stdlib/constants/float64/max-safe-integer' );
|
||
|
// returns 9007199254740991
|
||
|
|
||
|
var x = 9007199254740992;
|
||
|
// returns 9007199254740992
|
||
|
|
||
|
var y = 9007199254740993;
|
||
|
// returns 9007199254740992
|
||
|
|
||
|
var bool = ( x === y );
|
||
|
// returns true
|
||
|
```
|
||
|
|
||
|
In this example, `x` and `y` should be distinct, but they are not due to constraints imposed by storing numeric values in [double-precision floating-point format][ieee754]. "Safe" integers are thus [double-precision floating-point numbers][ieee754] having integer values with unequivocal binary representations.
