big.js

+ +

+ A small, fast, easy-to-use library for arbitrary-precision decimal + arithmetic. +

+ +

Hosted on GitHub.

+

+ + The library is incorporated into this page, so it should be available in + the console now. + +

+ +

API

+ +

+ In all examples below, var and semicolons are not shown, and + if a commented-out value is in quotes it means toString has + been called on the preceding expression. +

+ + + +

CONSTRUCTOR

+ +
+ BigBig(n) ⇒ Big +
+

n : number|string|Big : a decimal value

+

+ By default, the argument n can be a number, string or Big number, + but if Big.strict is set to true + an error will be thrown if n is not a string or Big number. +

+

+ Infinity, NaN and hexadecimal literal + strings, e.g. '0xff', are not valid. +

+

+ String values in octal literal form will be interpreted as decimals, + e.g. '011' is 11, not 9. +

+

+ String values may be in exponential, as well as normal (non-exponential) + notation. +

+

+ There is no limit to the number of digits of a string value + (other than that of JavaScript's maximum array size), but the largest + recommended exponent magnitude is 1000000. +

+

Returns a new Big number object with value n.

+

Throws if n is invalid.

+

+ Using new with Big is optional, but note that if no argument + is passed when doing so, or if the argument is undefined, + then a new Big constructor will be returned rather than a new Big number + instance. See creating additional Big number constructors + below. +

+
+x = new Big(9)                       // '9'
+y = new Big(x)                       // '9'
+new Big('5032485723458348569331745.33434346346912144534543')
+new Big('4.321e+4')                  // '43210'
+new Big('-735.0918e-430')            // '-7.350918e-428'
+Big(435.345)                         // '435.345'
+new Big()                            // 'Error: [big.js] Invalid value'
+Big()                                // No error, and a new Big constructor is returned
+    
+ + + +

Properties

+ +
DP
+

+ number : integer, 0 to 1e+6 inclusive
+ Default value: 20 +

+

+ The maximum number of decimal places of the results of operations + involving division.
+ It is relevant only to the div and sqrt methods, + and the pow method when the exponent is negative. +

+

+ The value will be checked for validity when one of the above methods is + called.
An error will be thrown if the value is found to be invalid. +

+
Big.DP = 40
+ + + +
RM
+

+ number : 0, 1, 2 or 3
+ Default value: 1 +

+

+ The rounding mode used in operations involving division and by + round, + toExponential, + toFixed and + toPrecision. +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
PropertyValueDescriptionBigDecimal equivalent
Big.roundDown0 + Rounds towards zero.
+ I.e. truncate, no rounding. +
ROUND_DOWN
Big.roundHalfUp1 + Rounds towards nearest neighbour.
+ If equidistant, rounds away from zero. +
ROUND_HALF_UP
Big.roundHalfEven2 + Rounds towards nearest neighbour.
+ If equidistant, rounds towards even neighbour. +
ROUND_HALF_EVEN
Big.roundUp3Rounds away from zero.ROUND_UP
+

+ The value will be checked for validity when one of the above methods is + called.
An error will be thrown if the value is found to be invalid. +

+
+Big.RM = 0
+Big.RM = Big.roundUp
+ + + +
NE
+

+ number : integer, -1e+6 to 0 inclusive
+ Default value: -7 +

+

+ The negative exponent value at and below which + toString returns exponential notation. +

+
+Big.NE = -7
+x = new Big(0.00000123)            // '0.00000123'       e is -6
+x = new Big(0.000000123)           // '1.23e-7'
+

+ JavaScript numbers use exponential notation for negative exponents of + -7 and below. +

+

+ Regardless of the value of Big.NE, the + toFixed method will always return a value + in normal notation and the toExponential + method will always return a value in exponential form. +

+ + + +
PE
+

+ number : integer, 0 to 1e+6 inclusive
+ Default value: 21 +

+

+ The positive exponent value at and above which + toString returns exponential notation. +

+
+Big.PE = 2
+x = new Big(12.3)                  // '12.3'        e is 1
+x = new Big(123)                   // '1.23e+2'
+

+ JavaScript numbers use exponential notation for positive exponents of + 21 and above. +

+

+ Regardless of the value of Big.PE, the + toFixed method will always return a value + in normal notation and the toExponential + method will always return a value in exponential form. +

+ + + +
strict
+

+ true|false
+ Default value: false +

+

+ When set to true, an error will be thrown if a primitive number + is passed to the Big constructor, or if valueOf + is called, or if toNumber is called on a Big + which cannot be converted to a primitive number without a loss of precision. +

+
+Big.strict = true
+x = new Big(1)                    // 'TypeError: [big.js] String expected'
+y = new Big('1.000000000000000000001')
+2 + y                             // 'Error: [big.js] valueOf disallowed'
+y.toNumber()                      // 'Error: [big.js] Imprecise conversion'
+
+Big.strict = false
+x = new Big(0.1)
+y = new Big('1.000000000000000000001')
+2 + y                             // '21.000000000000000000001'
+y.toNumber()                      // 1
+ + + +

+

+ Returns a string representing the value of this Big number in exponential + notation to a fixed number of dp decimal places. +

+

+ If the value of this Big number in exponential notation has more digits to + the right of the decimal point than is specified by dp, the + return value will be rounded to dp decimal places using + rounding mode rm. +

+

+ If the value of this Big number in exponential notation has fewer digits + to the right of the decimal point than is specified by dp, + the return value will be appended with zeros accordingly. +

+

+ If dp is omitted or is undefined, the number of digits + after the decimal point defaults to the minimum number of digits + necessary to represent the value exactly. +

+

+ if rm is omitted or is undefined, the current + Big.RM setting is used. +

+

+ Throws if dp or rm is invalid. +

+ toFixed.toFixed(dp, rm) ⇒ + string +
+

+ dp? : number : integer, 0 to 1e+6 inclusive +
+ rm? : number : 0, 1, 2 or 3 +

+ Returns a string representing the value of this Big number in normal + notation to a fixed number of dp decimal places. +

+

+ If the value of this Big number in normal notation has more digits to the + right of the decimal point than is specified by dp, the + return value will be rounded to dp decimal places using + rounding mode rm. +

+

+ If the value of this Big number in normal notation has fewer fraction + digits then is specified by dp, the return value will be + appended with zeros accordingly. +

+

+ Unlike Number.prototype.toFixed, which returns + exponential notation if a number is greater or equal to 1021, + this method will always return normal notation. +

+

+ If dp is omitted or is undefined, the return value is + simply the value in normal notation. This is also unlike + Number.prototype.toFixed, which returns the value to zero + decimal places. +

+

+ if rm is omitted or is undefined, the current + Big.RM setting is used. +

+ toPrecision.toPrecision(sd, rm) ⇒ + string +
+

+ sd? : number : integer, 1 to 1e+6 inclusive +
+ rm? : number : 0, 1, 2 or 3 +

+

+ Returns a string representing the value of this Big number to the + specified number of sd significant digits. +

+

+ If the value of this Big number has more digits than is specified by + sd, the return value will be rounded to sd + significant digits using rounding mode + rm. +

+

+ If the value of this Big number has fewer digits than is specified by + sd, the return value will be appended with zeros accordingly. +

+

+ If sd is less than the number of digits necessary to + represent the integer part of the value in normal notation, + exponential notation is used. +

+

+ If sd is omitted or is undefined, the return value is + the same as .toString(). +

+

+ if rm is omitted or is undefined, the current + Big.RM setting is used. +

+

+ Throws if sd or rm is invalid. +

+
+

+ If Big.strict is true an + error will be thrown if toNumber is called on a Big number + which cannot be converted to a primitive number without a loss of precision. +

+ + + +
+ toString.toString() ⇒ string +
+

+ Returns a string representing the value of this Big number. +

+

+ If this Big number has a positive exponent that is equal to or greater + than 21, or a negative exponent equal to or less than -7, exponential + notation is returned. +

+

+ The point at which toString returns exponential rather than + normal notation can be adjusted by changing the value of + Big.PE and + Big.NE. By default, Big numbers + correspond to JavaScript's number type in this regard. +

+
+x = new Big('9.99e+20')
+x.toString()               // '999000000000000000000'

+x = new Big(-0)
+x.valueOf()                 // '-0'
+x.toString()                // '0'
+

+ To prevent accidental usage of Big numbers with arithmetic operators, + if Big.strict is true any + explicit or implicit calls to valueOf will result in an error. +

Properties

+

+ A Big number is an object with three properties: +

+ + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + + +
PropertyDescriptionTypeValue
ccoefficient*number[] Array of single digits
eexponentnumberInteger, -1e+6 to 1e+6 inclusive
ssignnumber-1 or 1
+

*significand

+

+ The value of a Big number is stored in a normalised decimal floating point + format which corresponds to the value's toExponential form, + with the decimal point to be positioned after the most significant + (left-most) digit of the coefficient. +

+

+ Note that, as with JavaScript numbers, the original exponent and + fractional trailing zeros are not preserved. +

+
x = new Big(0.123)                 // '0.123'
+x.toExponential()                  // '1.23e-1'
+x.c                                // '1,2,3'
+x.e                                // -1
+x.s                                // 1
+
+y = new Number(-123.4567000e+2)    // '-12345.67'
+y.toExponential()                  // '-1.234567e+4'
+z = new Big('-123.4567000e+2')     // '-12345.67'
+z.toExponential()                  // '-1.234567e+4'
+z.c                                // '1,2,3,4,5,6,7'
+z.e                                // 4
+z.s                                // -1
+ + +

+ A Big number is mutable in the sense that the value of its properties can + be changed.
+ For example, to rapidly shift a value by a power of 10: +

+
+x = new Big('1234.000')    // '1234'
+x.toExponential()          // '1.234e+3'
+x.c                        // '1,2,3,4'
+x.e                        // 3
+
+x.e = -5
+x                          // '0.00001234'
+

+ If changing the coefficient array directly, which is not recommended, be + careful to avoid leading or trailing zeros (unless zero itself is being + represented). +

+

+ Minus zero is a valid Big number value, but like JavaScript numbers the + minus sign is not shown by toString. +

+
+x = new Number(-0)         // 0
+1 / x == -Infinity         // true
+
+y = new Big(-0)            // '0'
+y.c                        // '0'    [0].toString()
+y.e                        // 0
+y.s                        // -1
+ + + +

Errors

+

+ The errors that are thrown are instances of Error.
+ The message of the errors always begins with + [big.js], for example: +

FAQ

+
How can I convert a Big number to a primitive JavaScript number?
+

See toNumber.

+ + +
+ How can I round a Big number to a specified number of significant digits? +
+

See prec.

+ + +
+ How can I set the decimal places and/or rounding mode for just one + operation? +
+

+ This library uses a global configuration for the decimal places and + rounding mode used by division operations, so it is just a matter of + altering this as required. +

+
+Big.DP = 10
+y = x.sqrt()
+Big.DP = 0
+Big.RM = 1
+z = x.div(3)
+
+

+ There is also the ability to create separate Big number constructors each + with their own particular DP and RM settings. + See below. +

+

+ Finally, there is the option of safely redefining the relevant prototype + method as required. For example, the following would enable a decimal + places and rounding mode to be passed to the div method. +

+
+Big.prototype.div = (function () {
+  const div = Big.prototype.div;
+  return function (n, dp, rm) {
+    const Big = this.constructor;
+    const DP = Big.DP;
+    const RM = Big.RM;
+    if (dp != undefined) Big.DP = dp;
+    if (rm != undefined) Big.RM = rm;
+    let result = div.call(this, n);
+    Big.DP = DP;
+    Big.RM = RM;
+    return result;
+  }
+})();
+
+var dp = 10;
+var round_up = 2;
+x = x.div(y, dp, round_up);
+
+ + +
+ How can I simultaneously use different decimal places and/or rounding mode + settings for different Big numbers? +
+

+ Multiple Big number constructors can be created each with their own particular + DP and RM settings which apply to all Big numbers + created from it. +

+

+ As shown below, an additional Big number constructor is created by calling + an existing Big number constructor without using new and + without any argument. +

+
+Big10 = Big();
+
+Big.DP = 3;
+Big10.DP = 10;
+
+x = Big(5);
+y = Big10(5);
+
+x.div(3)     // 1.667
+y.div(3)     // 1.6666666667
+
+

+ Big numbers created by different constructors can be used together in + operations, and it is the DP and RM setting of + the Big number that an operation is called upon that will apply. +

+

+ In the interest of memory efficiency, all Big number constructors share + the same prototype object, so while the DP and + RM (and any other own properties) of a constructor are + isolated and untouchable by another, its prototype methods are not. +

+ + +
Why are trailing fractional zeros removed from Big numbers?
+

+ Many arbitrary-precision libraries retain trailing fractional zeros as + they can indicate the precision of a value. This can be useful but the + results of arithmetic operations can be misleading. +

+
+// Java's BigDecimal
+x = new BigDecimal("1.0")
+y = new BigDecimal("1.1000")
+z = x.add(y)                      // 2.1000
+
+x = new BigDecimal("1.20")
+y = new BigDecimal("3.45000")
+z = x.multiply(y)                 // 4.1400000
+
+

+ To specify the precision of a value is to imply that the value lies + within a certain range. +

+

+ In the first example, x has a value of 1.0. The trailing zero + shows the precision of the value, implying that the value is in the range + 0.95 to 1.05. Similarly, the precision indicated by the trailing zeros of + y indicates that the value is in the range 1.09995 to + 1.10005. If we add the two lowest values in the ranges we get 0.95 + + 1.09995 = 2.04995 and if we add the two highest values we get 1.05 + + 1.10005 = 2.15005, so the range of the result of the addition implied by + the precision of its operands is 2.04995 to 2.15005. The result given by + BigDecimal of 2.1000 however, indicates that the value is in the range + 2.09995 to 2.10005 and therefore the precision implied by its trailing + zeros is misleading. +

+

+ In the second example, the true range is 4.122744 to 4.157256 yet the + BigDecimal answer of 4.1400000 indicates a range of 4.13999995 to + 4.14000005. Again, the precision implied by the trailing zeros is + misleading. +

+

+ This library, like binary floating-point and most calculators, does not + retain trailing fractional zeros.
+ Instead, the toExponential, toFixed and + toPrecision methods enable trailing zeros to be added if and + when required. +
