The toNumber function is a utility method provided by the web3.utils module that converts any given value into its number or bigint representation, depending on the type of the input value.
The toNumber function takes a single value argument, which can be a number, a bigint, or a string that can be parsed to a number or bigint.
If the input value is a number, the function returns the number itself. If the input value is a bigint, the function returns the bigint representation of the value. If the input value is a string that can be parsed to a number or bigint, the function returns the parsed value as a number or bigint.
Here are some examples of how the toNumber function can be used:
In the first example, the toNumber function is called with the number 1, and it returns 1. In the second example, the toNumber function is called with the maximum safe integer value, which is a bigint, and it returns the bigint representation of the value. In the third example, the toNumber function is called with a bigint value, and it returns the bigint representation of the value. In the fourth example, the toNumber function is called with a bigint value that is the sum of two bigint values, and it returns the bigint representation of the sum.
