What's the use of setNumericValue() ?

[Archana Singh1]

Hello,

I was working on a form where we were using metric_instance table.In the Script Include setNumericValue() method was being used.I wish to know when do we use setNumericValue() and what's the unit in which we get the output for this method.

Thanks in advance.
