How to get the Max Integer Value in the Array?

[M.Hasanin]

Hi Experts

I need the Maximum Integer to include in my script so Instead of 1000

for (var i = 0; i < 1000; i++)

it will be :

for (var i = 0; i < MaxInteger; i++)

 I Searched the InDesign DOM but not find anythig!, Please Help

Thanks in Advance

A bit unclear. Assuming your Array is all integers, then you need to sort it then get the last entry. Sort() will not give you max by default; you need to roll your own. From this stack exchange: 

var numArray = [104, 140000, 99];
numArray.sort(function(a, b) {
  return a - b;
});
var maxInteger = numArray.pop();

Thank you Mr.brianp311, what i mean that instead of using limited number like 1000 or 2000, etc i want the array to loop to maximum allowed integer number in indesign javascript! maybe it will be million? as i assuming!, do you think there are a method for that?

Oh, you want:

var maxNum = Number.MAX_VALUE;

Not sure why, though...it is very large.

I need the maximum value because i make a script that will help you to start numbering in different way, so i dont want to limit the user with maximum number, thank you a lot

I am not sure what you are trying to achieve, if it's about iterating your array then array.length should work.
