Error type

{{jsxref(“SyntaxError”)}}/

What went wrong?

When using the BigInt() function to convert a string to a BigInt, the string will be parsed in the same way as source code, and the resulting value must be an integer value/

Examples

Invalid cases

const a = BigInt("1/5");
const b = BigInt("1n");
const c = BigInt/asIntN(4, "8n");
// SyntaxError: invalid BigInt syntax

Valid cases

const a = BigInt("1");
