getFactors

The getFactors function efficiently computes all positive integer factors (divisors) of a number.

Function Signature

function getFactors(int: Numeric | undefined): number[]

Parameters

• int (Numeric | undefined): A numeric value or numeric string to find factors for. Can also be undefined.

Return Value

• number[]: An array of positive integer factors in ascending order for valid input, or an empty array for invalid inputs (e.g. non-integers, negative numbers, or undefined).

Example Usage

Notes

• Uses the square root method for optimal performance (O(√n) complexity).
• Factors are always returned in ascending order.
