Big.js: Detailed Overview & Metrics
Big.js is a JavaScript library for arbitrary-precision arithmetic, allowing precise handling of large numbers without losing accuracy due to JavaScript's limitations with floating-point arithmetic. It provides methods for basic arithmetic operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division, as well as advanced functions like square root and exponentiation.
Compared to native JavaScript number handling, Big.js ensures accurate calculations for numbers of any size, making it ideal for financial applications, cryptography, and any scenario where precision is crucial. It is actively maintained and widely used in projects requiring precise numerical computations.
