Calculate aspect ratios.

## Usage

Library exports a single function `calculateRatio(x, y)` which returns the result object.
x and y are numbers. X is always the bigger number.

### Result object

The program returns an object with two properties

```javascript
{
match : {},
sortedRatios : [],
}
```

- ```match``` : Calculated aspect ratio if there is an exact match
- ```sortedRatios``` : List of aspect ratios ordered by proximity to the original dimensions

#### Result format

Result for both match and sortedRatios is of the following format

```javascript
{
name: "19by16", // usable name for program literals
ratio: "19:16", // Common name for the aspect ratio, if any
proximity : "0.123", // ascending numeric valu to represent closeness to the dimensions provided
description: "Sometimes referred to as the Movietone ratio, this ratio was used briefly during the transitional period when the film industry was converting to sound, from 1926 to 1932 approx. It is produced by superimposing an optical soundtrack over a full-gate 1.3 aperture in printing, resulting in an almost square image. Films shot in this ratio are often projected or transferred to video incorrectly using a 1.37 mask or squashed to 1.37. Examples of films shot in the Movietone ratio include Sunrise, M, Hallelujah! and The Lighthouse."
