You can obtain the count of digits in a number by converting it to a string and using the length method. Here is an example:

const num = 123456;
const count = num.toString().length;
console.log(count); //6

If you want to count the digits in a string, you can use a regular expression to match all the digits and then use the match method to get an array of matches. Here is an example:

const str = 'hello123world';
const count = str.match(/\d/g).length;
console.log(count); //3

In this example, the regular expression /\d/g matches all the digits in the string and the match method returns an array of matches. The length of this array gives us the count of digits.
