fraction-calculator

This is a library to calculate fraction. This library :

  1. can calculate floating number precisely
  2. can calculate(plus, minus, times, div, mod...) a fraction
  3. can power or sqrt a fraction.
  4. can convert a decimal to a fraction and convert it back
  5. can convert a recurring decimal to a fraction and convert it back
  6. supports IE
  7. has 100% UT coverage
  8. has 0 dependencies

Usage

Use it in ES6 or Node.js

Install:

npm install fraction-calculator --save

Then:

// ES6 import
import fc from 'fraction-calculator';

// Node.js
const fc = require('fraction-calculator');

// Use
fc(0.5).plus('12/25').minus('1/3').times('1 7/9').div('2 1/3').pow(6).sqrt().toFraction();      // 467288576/3906984375

Use it in modern browsers

This library has used some ES6 features, if you only target modern browsers, you can use ./dist/fraction-calculator.min.js, this file is only 7kb. This script will set a varable fc in the window, you can call it directly.

<html>
  <script src="./dist/fraction-calculator.min.js"></script>
  <script>
   var res = fc(0.5).plus('12/25').minus('1/3').times('1 7/9').div('2 1/3').pow(6).sqrt().toFraction();
   console.log(res);   // 467288576/3906984375
  </script>
</html>

Use it in old browsers

If you also target some old browsers, like IE, you can use ./dist/fraction-calculator.polyfill.min.js, it is built with babel-polyfill。

Features

Calculating floating number precisely

0.1 + 0.2;         // JS: 0.30000000000000004
fc(0.1).plus(0.2).toNumber();    // 0.3

Calculating fraction

fc(0.5).plus('12/25').minus('1/3').toFraction();   // "97/150"

Converting a decimal to a fraction and convert it back

fc(0.1478).toFraction();   // 739/5000 
fc('739/5000').toNumber();  // 0.1478

Converting a recurring decimal to a fraction and convert it back

fc('1.2(1478)').toFraction(); // 60733/49995
fc('60733/49995').toRecurringDecimal(); // 1.2(1478)

API

All API

When you use this library, you shouldn't use new, just fc(). Let's take a look at all API:

// constractor
fc('1/2')
fc('1 1/2')
fc(1, 2)
fc(4.5)
fc("1.'1'")
fc("1.(1)")
fc(fc(4.5))

// calculation api
fc().plus()
fc().minus()
fc().times()
fc().div()
fc().mod()
fc().pow()
fc().sqrt()
fc().abs()
fc().neg()
fc().inverse()
fc().ceil()
fc().floor()
fc().round()

// compare api
fc().equals()
fc().greaterThan()
fc().lessThan()

// display api
fc().toFraction()
fc().toFixed()
fc().toNumber()
fc().toRecurringDecimal()

// others
fc().clone()

// static api
fc.gcd()
fc.lcm()

// config
fc.DISABLE_REDUCE

constractor

Fraction calculator constractor supports many kinds of parameter, but if you pass an invalid parameter, you will get an error:

fc({});    // Error: Unsupported parameter [object Object]

String

fc('1/2');     // It is 1/2

If you pass 0 or NaN as denominator, you will get an error:

fc('1/0');  // Error: Denominator can't be 0 or NaN

Sting with whole part

fc('1 1/2');     // It is 3/2

Number

fc(1.5);     // It is still 3/2

If you pass a NaN or Infinity, you will get an error:

fc('aaa');   // Error: Unsupported number NaN or Infinity

Two numbers

fc(3, 2);   // It is still 3/2

Recurring decimal

You can use ''or()to mark recurring part. Please note if you input a long decimals(over 15 numbers), you may only get a closed fraction, not precise one.

fc("0.1'258'");   // 419/3330
fc("0.1(258)");   // 419/3330

Another instance

fc(fc("0.1'258'"));   // 419/3330

Calculation API

All calculation api are chainable, all return value is this. It means you can call it like this:

fc(0.5).plus('12/25').minus('1/3').times('1 7/9').div('2.1(3)').pow(6).sqrt().ceil().floor().round().toFraction();  // 1

plus, minus, times, div,mod

You can know what they are doing from their names. They can support one parameter in all kinds that constractor supports. mod will get the same result as JS %.

fc(0.5).plus('12/25').toFraction();   // 49/50
fc(0.5).minus('12/25').toFraction();  // 1/50
fc(0.5).times('12/25').toFraction();  // 6/25
fc(0.5).div('12/25').toFraction();  // 25/24

fc('-29/3').mod(5).toFraction();    // Result: -14/3 . The same as (-29/3) % 5
fc('29/3').mod(-5).toFraction();    // Result: 14/3 . The same as (29/3) % -5

pow(n)

pow can only support a number parameter, it is Math.pow(numerator, n)/Math.pow(denominator, n), if denominator reached Infinity, fraction will be reset to 0. If numerator reached Infinity, it will throw an error:

fc('99999999999/888888888888').pow(9999999); // Error: Numerator reached Infinity

sqrt()

It is pow('1/2').

If fraction is negative, you call sqrt, you will get a error:

fc('-5/3').sqrt();    // Error: Sqrt number cannot less than 0

abs()

Get the absolute value.

fc(-0.5).abs().toFraction();   // "1/2"

neg()

Get the negation.

fc(-0.5).neg().toFraction();   // "1/2"

fc(0.5).neg().toFraction();   // "-1/2"

inverse()

Get the inverse.

fc(0.5).inverse().toFraction();   // "2"

ceil()

Based on Math.ceil().

floor()

Based on Math.floor().

round()

Based on Math.round().

Compare API

There are 3 compare API,equals,greaterThan,lessThan. They can support one parameter in all kinds that constractor supports. Their return valus are boolean.

fc('3/2').equals('6/4');   // true
fc('-3/2').greaterThan('-4/2');  // true
fc('-3/2').lessThan('-4/2');  // false

Display API

toFraction(withWholePart = false)

This API will show fraction in string, but if it is an integer, it will only show integer in string.This api has an optional parameterwithWholePart, default is false. You can set it to true to show whole part.

fc(5).toFraction(); // "5"
fc(5.5).toFraction(); // "11/2"
fc(5.5).toFraction(true); // "5 1/2"

toFixed(n)

Based on js toFixed:

fc('2.5(678)').toFixed(2);   // 2.57

toNumber()

This will show all decimals JS can handle:

fc('2.5(678)').toNumber();   // 2.567867867867868

toRecurringDecimal()

This API will show fraction in recurring decimal, recurring part will marked with (). Please note recurring part can be very long, the search can be very slow if it is. So this library will only search first 3000 decimals, If still not find a pattern, it will output the whole 3000 numbers, like "0.1234567890.......".

fc('2/9').toRecurringDecimal();  // "0.(2)"
fc('123/456').toRecurringDecimal();  // "0.269(736842105263157894)"

Static API

fc.gcd(a, b)

This API will return GCD(greatest common divisor) of a and b. 

fc.gcd(18, 27);  // 9

But if a or b is NaN or Infinity, it will throw an error:

fc.gcd('aaa', 2);  // Error: Invalid Parameter

fc.lcm(a,b)

This API will return LCM(Lowest Common Multiple) of a and b. 

fc.lcm(18, 27);  // 54

But if a or b is NaN or Infinity, it will throw an error:

fc.lcm('aaa', 2);  // Error: Invalid Parameter

Other API

clone()

This API will return a copy of current instance:

let fc1 = fc(0.5);
let fc2 = fc1.clone();

fc2.minus('1/3').toFraction();   //  "1/6"
fc1.toFraction();   //  "1/2"

Config

This library can work well without any config. But there is still a global config, you can disable reducing.

let fc1 = fc('25/45'); 
fc1.toFraction();     // 5/9

fc.DISABLE_REDUCE = true;  
fc1.toFraction();     // 25/45

fc.DISABLE_REDUCE = false;  
fc1.toFraction();     // 5/9

If you disable reducing, then call pow or sqrt, you may get decimals in numerator and denominator:

fc.DISABLE_REDUCE = true;  
fc('5/3').pow(1.5).toFraction();     // "11.180339887498949/5.196152422706632"
