JavaScript Number.toFixed() Method

The Number.toFixed() method returns a string representing the given number using fixed-point notation.

Note: The number is rounded if necessary, and the fractional part is padded with zeros if necessary so that it has the specified length.

Note: If a number is greater or equal to 1e+21, this method simply calls Number.prototype.toString() and returns a string in exponential notation.
