Welcome back to our Redis course! Now that you know how to connect to a Redis server, it's time to move forward and explore how to work with numbers in Redis. This unit builds on our previous lesson, so make sure you're comfortable establishing a connection to a Redis server.

In this lesson, you will learn how to:

1. Set numeric values in Redis.
2. Retrieve and log numeric values.

Here's the code snippet that we'll be working with:

Let's break down the code:

• We start by importing the ioredis library to access its functionalities.
• A Redis client is created using new Redis(), which connects to the default Redis server.
• Numeric values are set using the set method: count with a value of 5 and completion_rate with a value of 95.5.
