how to sum 2 numbers in typescript

Question

I have this properties

export interface IOurFirstSpfWebPartWebPartProps {
  description: string;
  n1: number;
  n2: number;

}

Then I have this method

public render(): void {
    this.domElement.innerHTML = `
      <div class="${styles.ourFirstSpfWebPart}">
        <div class="${styles.container}">
          <div class="ms-Grid-row ms-bgColor-themeDark ms-fontColor-white ${styles.row}">
            <div class="ms-Grid-col ms-u-lg10 ms-u-xl8 ms-u-xlPush2 ms-u-lgPush1">
              <span class="ms-font-xl ms-fontColor-white">Welcome to SharePoint!</span>
              <p class="ms-font-l ms-fontColor-white">Customize SharePoint experiences using Web Parts.</p>
              <p class="ms-font-l ms-fontColor-white">${this.properties.n1} + ${this.properties.n2}</p>
              <a href="https://github.com/SharePoint/sp-dev-docs/wiki" class="ms-Button ${styles.button}">
                <span class="ms-Button-label">Learn more</span>
              </a>
            </div>
          </div>
        </div>
      </div>`;
  }

However this is printing 1+2 instead of 3.

Answer 1

Add an extra + , for every argument which you want to add. You need to do it like: this.sum = +this.num1 + +this.num2; .

Answer 2

You answer is related to implicit coercion in javascript. Simply put, you're concatinating two strings in a template and not adding two numbers.

When you hit the {} s in your templating syntax, your numbers will be stringified. In essence you are then adding

"1" + "2" = "12"

instead of

1 + 2 = 3

You can try two things:

1. put both expressions inside of the {}

${this.properties.n1 + this.properties.n2}

If that still makes "12" then

2. Try ${parseInt(this.properties.n1) + parseint(this.properties.n2)} . That will coerce both values to a number first, if it can be done.

You can learn more about type coercion in the article You Don't Know JS: Types & Grammar , where it will really explain all the 'gotchas' out there about the + operator and implicit types.

Answer 3

The tick mark creates a template literal. I think you're looking for: ${this.properties.n1 + this.properties.n2} —all inside the same curly braces.

在数字前面加上 + 号
