excerpt: Learn how to check if two numbers are approximately equal to each other in JavaScript.

MD013 - Line length

Tags: line_length

Aliases: line-length Parameters: linelength, codeblocks, tables (number; default 80, boolean; default true)

This rule is triggered when there are lines that are longer than the configured line length (default: 80 characters). To fix this, split the line up into multiple lines.

This rule has an exception where there is no whitespace beyond the configured line length. This allows you to still include items such as long URLs without being forced to break them in the middle.

You also have the option to exclude this rule for code blocks and tables. To do this, set the code_blocks and/or tables parameters to false.

Code blocks are included in this rule by default since it is often a requirement for document readability, and tentatively compatible with code rules. Still, some languages do not lend themselves to short lines.

In many cases, not limited to precision issues, you might want to check if two numbers are approximately equal to each other. Generally speaking, the straightforward way to do this is to use `Math.abs()` to compare the **absolute difference** of the two numbers to a certain `epsilon` value.

We've all seen the classic **floating point arithmetic** problem in JavaScript, usually demonstrated as `0.1 + 0.2 === 0.3` returning `false`. This is due to the **limited precision** of floating point numbers, and is a common problem in many programming languages.
