To aid in debugging, if a BigNumber.DEBUG property is true then an error will be thrown
if the BigNumber constructor receives an invalid BigNumber.Value, or if BigNumber.isBigNumber
receives a BigNumber instance that is malformed.
// No error, and BigNumber NaN is returned.
new BigNumber('blurgh') // 'NaN'
new BigNumber(9, 2) // 'NaN'
BigNumber.DEBUG = true
new BigNumber('blurgh') // '[BigNumber Error] Not a number'
new BigNumber(9, 2) // '[BigNumber Error] Not a base 2 number'
An error will also be thrown if a BigNumber.Value is of type number with more than 15
significant digits, as calling toString or valueOf on such numbers may not result
in the intended value.
console.log(823456789123456.3) // 823456789123456.2
// No error, and the returned BigNumber does not have the same value as the number literal.
new BigNumber(823456789123456.3) // '823456789123456.2'
BigNumber.DEBUG = true
new BigNumber(823456789123456.3)
// '[BigNumber Error] Number primitive has more than 15 significant digits'
Check that a BigNumber instance is well-formed:
x = new BigNumber(10)
BigNumber.DEBUG = false
// Change x.c to an illegitimate value.
x.c = NaN
// No error, as BigNumber.DEBUG is false.
BigNumber.isBigNumber(x) // true
BigNumber.DEBUG = true
BigNumber.isBigNumber(x) // '[BigNumber Error] Invalid BigNumber'

A numeric value.
Returns a BigNumber whose value is the value of this BigNumber exponentiated by n, i.e.
raised to the power n, and optionally modulo a modulus m.
If n is negative the result is rounded according to the current DECIMAL_PLACES and
ROUNDING_MODE settings.
As the number of digits of the result of the power operation can grow so large so quickly,
e.g. 123.456**10000 has over 50000 digits, the number of significant digits calculated is
limited to the value of the POW_PRECISION setting (unless a modulus m is specified).
By default POW_PRECISION is set to 0. This means that an unlimited number of significant
digits will be calculated, and that the method's performance will decrease dramatically for
larger exponents.
If m is specified and the value of m, n and this BigNumber are integers and n is
positive, then a fast modular exponentiation algorithm is used, otherwise the operation will
be performed as x.exponentiatedBy(n).modulo(m) with a POW_PRECISION of 0.
Throws if n is not an integer.

rounded to decimalPlaces decimal places using rounding mode roundingMode.
If the value of this BigNumber in normal notation has fewer than decimalPlaces fraction
digits, the return value will be appended with zeros accordingly.

equal to 10**21, this method will always return normal notation.
If decimalPlaces is omitted or is null or undefined, the return value will be unrounded
and in normal notation. This is also unlike Number.prototype.toFixed, which returns the value
to zero decimal places. It is useful when normal notation is required and the current

denominator will be the lowest value necessary to represent the number exactly.
Throws if max_denominator is invalid.

Returns a string representing the value of this BigNumber in base base, or base 10 if base
is omitted or is null or undefined.
For bases above 10, and using the default base conversion alphabet (see ALPHABET), values
from 10 to 35 are represented by a-z (the same as Number.prototype.toString).
If a base is specified the value is rounded according to the current DECIMAL_PLACES and
ROUNDING_MODE settings, otherwise it is not.
If a base is not specified, and this BigNumber has a positive exponent that is equal to or
greater than the positive component of the current EXPONENTIAL_AT setting, or a negative
exponent equal to or less than the negative component of the setting, then exponential notation
is returned.
If base is null or undefined it is ignored.
Throws if base is invalid.

zero.

Returns a new independent BigNumber constructor with configuration as described by object, or
with the default configuration if object is null or undefined.
Throws if object is not an object.

x.div(3) // 0.33333
y.div(3) // 0.333333333

Configures the settings that apply to this BigNumber constructor.
The configuration object, object, contains any number of the properties shown in the example

Throws if object is not an object, or if an invalid value is assigned to one or more of the
properties.

The value to test.
Returns a BigNumber whose value is the maximum of the arguments.
The return value is always exact and unrounded.
x = new BigNumber('3257869345.0378653')
BigNumber.max(4e9, x, '123456789.9') // '4000000000'

A numeric value.
Returns a BigNumber whose value is the maximum of the arguments.
The return value is always exact and unrounded.
x = new BigNumber('3257869345.0378653')
BigNumber.maximum(4e9, x, '123456789.9') // '4000000000'
arr = [12, '13', new BigNumber(14)]
BigNumber.maximum.apply(null, arr) // '14'
A numeric value.
Returns a BigNumber whose value is the minimum of the arguments.
The return value is always exact and unrounded.
x = new BigNumber('3257869345.0378653')
BigNumber.min(4e9, x, '123456789.9') // '123456789.9'
arr = [2, new BigNumber(-14), '-15.9999', -12]
BigNumber.min.apply(null, arr) // '-15.9999'
A numeric value.
Returns a BigNumber whose value is the minimum of the arguments.
The return value is always exact and unrounded.
x = new BigNumber('3257869345.0378653')
BigNumber.minimum(4e9, x, '123456789.9') // '123456789.9'
arr = [2, new BigNumber(-14), '-15.9999', -12]
BigNumber.minimum.apply(null, arr) // '-15.9999'
A numeric value.
Returns a new BigNumber with a pseudo-random value equal to or greater than 0 and less than 1.
The return value will have decimalPlaces decimal places, or less if trailing zeros are
produced. If decimalPlaces is omitted, the current DECIMAL_PLACES setting will be used.
Depending on the value of this BigNumber constructor's CRYPTO setting and the support for the
crypto object in the host environment, the random digits of the return value are generated by
either Math.random (fastest), crypto.getRandomValues (Web Cryptography API in recent
browsers) or crypto.randomBytes (Node.js).
To be able to set CRYPTO to true when using Node.js, the crypto object must be available
globally:
global.crypto = require('crypto')
If CRYPTO is true, i.e. one of the crypto methods is to be used, the value of a returned
BigNumber should be cryptographically secure and statistically indistinguishable from a random
value.
Throws if decimalPlaces is invalid.
BigNumber.config({ DECIMAL_PLACES: 10 })
BigNumber.random() // '0.4117936847'
BigNumber.random(20) // '0.78193327636914089009'
Configures the settings that apply to this BigNumber constructor.
The configuration object, object, contains any number of the properties shown in the example
below.
Returns an object with the above properties and their current values.
Throws if object is not an object, or if an invalid value is assigned to one or more of the
properties.

The configuration object.
Returns a BigNumber whose value is the sum of the arguments.
The return value is always exact and unrounded.
x = new BigNumber('3257869345.0378653')
BigNumber.sum(4e9, x, '123456789.9') // '7381326134.9378653'
arr = [2, new BigNumber(14), '15.9999', 12]
BigNumber.sum.apply(null, arr) // '43.9999'
A numeric value.
Generated using TypeDoc
Returns a new instance of a BigNumber object with value
n, wherenis a numeric value in the specifiedbase, or base 10 ifbaseis omitted or isnullorundefined.If
nis a base 10 value it can be in normal (fixed-point) or exponential notation. Values in other bases must be in normal notation. Values in any base can have fraction digits, i.e. digits after the decimal point.Signed
0, signedInfinityandNaNare supported.String values in hexadecimal literal form, e.g.
'0xff', are valid, as are string values with the octal and binary prefixs'0o'and'0b'. String values in octal literal form without the prefix will be interpreted as decimals, e.g.'011'is interpreted as 11, not 9.If a base is specified,
nis rounded according to the currentDECIMAL_PLACESandROUNDING_MODEsettings. This includes base 10, so don't include abaseparameter for decimal values unless this behaviour is desired.An error is thrown if
baseis invalid.There is no limit to the number of digits of a value of type string (other than that of JavaScript's maximum array size). See
RANGEto set the maximum and minimum possible exponent value of a BigNumber.BigNumber
NaNis returned ifnis invalid (unlessBigNumber.DEBUGistrue, see below).To aid in debugging, if
BigNumber.DEBUGistruethen an error will be thrown on an invalidn. An error will also be thrown ifnis of type number with more than 15 significant digits, as callingtoStringorvalueOfon these numbers may not result in the intended value.A BigNumber can also be created from an object literal. Use
isBigNumberto check that it is well-formed.
