Observed message

RangeError: precision is out of range

Why it happens

  • A number formatting method received a precision outside the supported range.
  • User input was passed directly into a precision argument.
  • Conversion or parsing logic produced an unexpected formatting value.

How to fix it

  1. Clamp or validate precision values before calling number formatting methods.
  2. Check the accepted range for the specific formatting API.
  3. Treat user-supplied formatting options as untrusted input.
