📖 Rule Details

This rule aims to enforce the use of Number.MIN_VALUE instead of literal number representations of the smallest positive representable number.

Number.MIN_VALUE provides several advantages over hardcoded literals:

• Clarity of intent: Immediately obvious that you're using the smallest positive number
• Precision: Guaranteed to be the exact minimum positive representable value
• Maintainability: Avoids potential typos in extremely small literal values
• Standards compliance: Uses the official IEEE 754 double-precision minimum
