Get the smallest positive number in JavaScript
// Consider the "smallest" positive number in JavaScript, (where there are 322 zeros before "1" after the point,)
const a = 0.00000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001;
// I call it "smallest" because if we add one more zero before the "1", JavaScript takes it as zero:
const a0 = 0.000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000000001;
console.log(`a0 == 0: ${a0 == 0}`); // true
// Now let's check a number b9,
// a = 0.0...01 // 0.(322 zeros)1
// b9 = 0.0...009
