[](https://github.com/davidmartinez10/bigfloat-deno)
A library for arbitrary precision decimal floating point arithmetic that can exactly represent all decimal fractions,
unlike JavaScript's number data type which is 64-bit binary floating point.
Based on the original work by Douglas Crockford.
This implementation is built upon ES native bigints.
This library provides three ways to make bigfloat operations:
- A set of functions for a functional style approach
- A BigFloat class with an API similar to that of Decimal.js
- An evaluate() function that parses and resolves an expression
# Basic usage
### Functional style
```typescript
import { make, string, sqrt } from "https://deno.land/x/bigfloat/mod.ts";
string(sqrt(make("2"))); // "1.4142"
```
### Class based
```typescript
import { BigFloat } from "https://deno.land/x/bigfloat/mod.ts";
new BigFloat("2").sqrt().toString(); // "1.4142"
```
### The evaluate() function
```typescript
evaluate(expression: string, precision?: number): string | boolean
```
>The first argument can be any valid arithmetic or relational expression, including scientific e-notation.
>Precision should be a negative integer. Default is -4.
```typescript
import { evaluate } from "https://deno.land/x/bigfloat/mod.ts";
0.1 + 0.2 === 0.3; // false
evaluate("0.1 + 0.2 == 0.3"); // true
0.1 + 0.2; // 0.30000000000000004
evaluate("0.1 + 0.2"); // "0.3"
1 + Number.EPSILON / 2; // 1
evaluate(`1 + ${Number.EPSILON / 2}`); // "1.00000000000000011102230246251565"
evaluate("1 + 2.220446049250313e-16"); // "1.0000000000000002220446049250313"
evaluate(`4 >= ${Math.PI}`); // true
```
Valid tokens:
- Parenthesis: (,)
- Number: Decimal, integer or scientific e-notation
- Operator: Arithmetic +,-,/,*,** Relational =\=\=,=\=,!==,!=,<,>,<=,>=
### Change precision
```typescript
import { BigFloat, set_precision } from "https://deno.land/x/bigfloat/mod.ts";
new BigFloat(2).sqrt().toString(); // "1.4142"
set_precision(-10);
new BigFloat(2).sqrt().toString(); // "1.4142135623"
```
### The bigfloat object
```typescript
interface IBigFloat {
coefficient: bigint;
exponent: number;
}
```
Valid bigfloat made from primitives:
```typescript
const bigfloat: IBigFloat {
coefficient: 522299n,
exponent: -4
};
```
