## Summary
Floating conversion with default.
## Syntax
```js
keyman.util.toFloat(s, dflt);
```
### Parameters
`s`
: Type: `string`
: Numeric string.
`dflt`
: Type: `number`
: Default value if parse is unsuccessful.
### Return Value
`number`
: The string's conversion to a numeric value, or the default value if unsuccessful.
## Description
This is a simple wrapper around `parseFloat` to handle invalid inputs, for which
`dflt` will be returned instead.
This function has been deprecated and will be removed in a future version of KeymanWeb.
