This tool uses a regular expression to scan your text and pull out all numeric values, including integers, decimals, and negative numbers. Useful for pulling prices, measurements, or data from reports. Runs entirely in your browser.
Number Extractor uses a high-performance regular expression to scan your text and pull integers, decimals, and signed numbers into a clean list instantly. This regex number parser is designed for developers scraping logs or mining numeric tokens from unstructured data. Captured tokens are returned in document order, optionally deduplicated through a Set, and joined with the separator you chose. Because the match is greedy on digits and the optional decimal part, it correctly grabs prices, percentages, IDs, line numbers and version components - but it deliberately does not interpret thousands separators (1,000 becomes 1 and 000) or scientific notation, since those rules vary by locale.
Once a list is produced, every token is passed through Number() to build the stats panel. This digit extractor makes it easy to find integers and extract decimals from text without manual filtering. The sum is a simple reduce, min and max use Math.min/Math.max on the parsed array, and the average is sum divided by count, then rounded to four decimal places via toFixed(4) and toLocaleString() for thousands grouping. Empty input safely produces an empty result with the stats bar hidden, and very large pastes (hundreds of thousands of matches) stay responsive because nothing leaves the page.
The pattern matches an optional minus sign, one or more digits, and an optional fractional part - so 42, -7 and 3.14 are all captured. Scientific notation (1e6), hexadecimal (0xFF) and thousands-separated values like 1,000 are not treated as a single number.
With Unique only ticked, the matched strings are passed through a JavaScript Set so each distinct token appears once, in the order it was first seen. -3 and 3 are kept separate because the comparison is on the string, not the numeric value.
Each matched string is parsed with Number() and the stats panel shows the count, total, smallest, largest and arithmetic mean. The sum, min, max and average are rounded to four decimal places for display; the underlying floating-point math is JavaScript-standard double precision.
Yes - the regex isn't anchored to word boundaries, so 2 in file2.txt and 1.5 in v1.5 are extracted. Untick Include decimals if you want version strings split into 1 and 5, or untick Include negatives if a leading minus is part of a date or hyphenated identifier.
