@evestx/bignumber v0.0.1

@evestx/bignumber

A JavaScript library for arbitrary-precision decimal and non-decimal arithmetic.

Load

The library is the single JavaScript file bignumber.umd.js (or minified, bignumber.umd.min.js).

Browser:

<script src='./dist/bignumber.umd.min.js'></script>

Node.js:

$ npm install @evestx/bignumber

const { BigNumber } = require('@evestx/bignumber');

ES6 module:

import { BigNumber } from "@evestx/bignumber"

AMD loader libraries such as requireJS:

require(['@evestx/bignumber'], function(BigNumber) {
    // Use BigNumber here in local scope. No global BigNumber.
});

Use

let x = new BigNumber(123.4567);
let y = BigNumber('123456.7e-3');
let z = new BigNumber(x);
x.eq(y) && y.eq(z) && x.eq(z);      // true

To get the string value of a BigNumber use toString() or toFixed(). Using toFixed() prevents exponential notation being returned, no matter how large or small the value.

let x = new BigNumber('1111222233334444555566');
x.toString();                       // "1111222233334444555566"
x.toFixed();                        // "1111222233334444555566"

Clone

Clones an object

const some = new BigNumber(1);
const clone = some.clone();

Add

Performs addition

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.add('50'); // with method toFixed '150'

Sub

Subtraction

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.sub('50'); // with method toFixed '50'

Mul

Multiplication

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.mul(2); // with method toFixed '200'

Div

Division

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.div(2); //  with method toFixed '50'

Pow

Exponentiation

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.pow(2); // with method toFixed '10000'

Sqrt

Square root

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.sqrt(); // with method toFixed '10'

Abs

Module

const bigNum = new BigNumber('-100');
const result = bigNum.abs(); // with method toFixed 100

Mod

Remainder of the division

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.mod(10); // with method toFixed '0' 

RoundTo

Rounds up. Accepts number of decimal places after rounding and rounding mode see here: http://mikemcl.github.io/bignumber.js/#constructor-properties

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.roundTo(); //

Eq

Equality

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.eq(100); // true

Lt

Less

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.lt(); //

Gt

More

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.gt(); //

Lte

Less than or equal to

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.lte(); //

Gte

More or equal

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.gte(); //

IsNaN

Checks for NaN

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isNaN(); // false

IsFinite

Checks for Infinity (positive and negative)

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isFinite(); //

IsZero

Checks for null

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isZero(); // false

IsPositive

Above zero

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isPositive(); // true

IsNegative

Less than zero

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isNegative(); // false

IsInt

Checks if an integer

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isInt(); //

GetDecimalsCount

We get the number of zanks after the decimal point of the number

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.getDecimalsCount(); // 0

IsEven

Even

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isEven(); // true

IsOdd

not even

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.isOdd(); // false

ToBytes

Convert the number to signed bytes (8 bytes). Works only with integers.

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.toBytes();

ToFormat

We output the number in the string equivalent of c, taking into account the formatting settings. Optionally accepts the number of rounding characters, rounding mode (as in roundTo), and output format settings.

const bigNum = new BigNumber('1000000.12312');
bigNum.toFormat(); // 1,000,000.12312 
bigNum.toFormat(2); // 1,000,000.12 
bigNum.toFormat(2); // 1,000,000.12 
bigNum.toFormat(2, 0); // 1,000,000.13 
bigNum.toFormat(2, 0, { groupSeparator: ' ' }); // 1 000 000.13 

ToFixed

Output the number in string equivalent. Optionally accepts the number of rounding characters and the rounding mode (as in roundTo)

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.toFixed(); //

ToNumber

Leads to number

const bigNum = new BigNumber('100');
const result = bigNum.toNumber(); //

Static Methods

fromBytes

Outputs a signed number from bytes. Only works with 8 bytes.

const some = BigNumber.fromBytes(Uint8Array.from([1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]));

max

Takes any number of arguments, chooses the largest number from the arguments

BigNumber.max(1, '2', new BigNumber(4)); // with method toFixed '4'

min

Takes any number of arguments, chooses the smallest number of arguments

BigNumber.min(1, '2', new BigNumber(4)); // with method toFixed '1'

sum

Takes any number of arguments, adds numbers

BigNumber.min(1, '2', new BigNumber(4)); //with method toFixed '7'
