Non-numeric number field input is not validated

In Drupal core changes are made on on 11.x (our main development branch) first, and are then back ported as needed according to the Core change policies → .

@m.stenta When I create a field of type 'number', it doesn't allow alphabetic characters to be entered, except for the letter 'e', which is interpreted as part of an exponential value. However, if the value includes 'e', submitting the node still results in a validation error. Even tried with some numbers line 2-4 still it give valid number validations

Thanks for testing this @ankusht1515 - I tested again on a fresh Drupal installation and you're right: everything worked as expected. It must be an issue or conflict with something else in my first testing environment. I will close this as "can't reproduce" and try to narrow down what caused it to happen for me originally.
