I have a React component within which a web3js function queries numbers from Ethereum by using getNumber() function.

I want to call another function called setNumber() that takes one uint256, by passing to it the output that I'm getting from getNumber(). What would be the best way to do that in Truffle/React?

this is the best way for it : consider your contract name is contract and then

first you must get your accounts from web3 lib :

let accounts = await web3.eth.getAccounts()

for setting a number use : await contract.methods.setNumber('your number').send({from : accounts[0]})

and for get a number use : let number = contract.methods.getNumber().call()
