	<h1>bignumber<span id='js'>.js</span></h1>

	<p>A JavaScript library for arbitrary-precision arithmetic.</p>
	<p><a href="https://github.com/MikeMcl/bignumber.js">Hosted on GitHub</a>. </p>

	<h2>API</h2>

	<p>
	See the <a href='https://github.com/MikeMcl/bignumber.js'>README</a> on GitHub for a
	quick-start introduction.
	</p>
	<p>
	In all examples below, <code>var</code> and semicolons are not shown, and if a commented-out
	value is in quotes it means <code>toString</code> has been called on the preceding expression.
	</p>


	<h3>CONSTRUCTOR</h3>


	<h5 id="bignumber">
	BigNumber<code class='inset'>BigNumber(n [, base]) <i>⇒ BigNumber</i></code>
	</h5>
	<p>
	<code>n</code>: <i>number\|string\|BigNumber</i><br />
	<code>base</code>: <i>number</i>: integer, <code>2</code> to <code>36</code> inclusive. (See
	<a href='#alphabet'><code>ALPHABET</code></a> to extend this range).
	</p>
	<p>
	Returns a new instance of a BigNumber object with value <code>n</code>, where <code>n</code>
	is a numeric value in the specified <code>base</code>, or base <code>10</code> if
	<code>base</code> is omitted or is <code>null</code> or <code>undefined</code>.
	</p>
	<p>
	Note that the BigNnumber constructor accepts an <code>n</code> of type <em>number</em> purely
	as a convenience so that string quotes don't have to be typed when entering literal values,
	and that it is the <code>toString</code> value of <code>n</code> that is used rather than its
	underlying binary floating point value converted to decimal.
	</p>
	<pre>
	x = new BigNumber(123.4567) // '123.4567'
	// 'new' is optional
	y = BigNumber(x) // '123.4567'</pre>
	<p>
	If <code>n</code> is a base <code>10</code> value it can be in normal 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.
	</p>
	<pre>
	new BigNumber(43210) // '43210'
	new BigNumber('4.321e+4') // '43210'
	new BigNumber('-735.0918e-430') // '-7.350918e-428'
	new BigNumber('123412421.234324', 5) // '607236.557696'</pre>
	<p>
	Signed <code>0</code>, signed <code>Infinity</code> and <code>NaN</code> are supported.
	</p>
	<pre>
	new BigNumber('-Infinity') // '-Infinity'
	new BigNumber(NaN) // 'NaN'
	new BigNumber(-0) // '0'
	new BigNumber('.5') // '0.5'
	new BigNumber('+2') // '2'</pre>
	<p>
	String values in hexadecimal literal form, e.g. <code>'0xff'</code> or <code>'0xFF'</code>
	(but not <code>'0xfF'</code>), are valid, as are string values with the octal and binary
	prefixs <code>'0o'</code> and <code>'0b'</code>. String values in octal literal form without
	the prefix will be interpreted as decimals, e.g. <code>'011'</code> is interpreted as 11, not 9.
	</p>
	<pre>
	new BigNumber(-10110100.1, 2) // '-180.5'
	new BigNumber('-0b10110100.1') // '-180.5'
	new BigNumber('ff.8', 16) // '255.5'
	new BigNumber('0xff.8') // '255.5'</pre>
	<p>
	If a base is specified, <code>n</code> is rounded according to the current
	<a href='#decimal-places'><code>DECIMAL_PLACES</code></a> and
	<a href='#rounding-mode'><code>ROUNDING_MODE</code></a> settings. <em>This includes base
	<code>10</code> so don't include a <code>base</code> parameter for decimal values unless
	this behaviour is wanted.</em>
	</p>
	<pre>BigNumber.config({ DECIMAL_PLACES: 5 })
	new BigNumber(1.23456789) // '1.23456789'
	new BigNumber(1.23456789, 10) // '1.23457'</pre>
	<p>An error is thrown if <code>base</code> is invalid. See <a href='#Errors'>Errors</a>.</p>
	<p>
	There is no limit to the number of digits of a value of type <em>string</em> (other than
	that of JavaScript's maximum array size). See <a href='#range'><code>RANGE</code></a> to set
	the maximum and minimum possible exponent value of a BigNumber.
	</p>
	<pre>
	new BigNumber('5032485723458348569331745.33434346346912144534543')
	new BigNumber('4.321e10000000')</pre>
	<p>BigNumber <code>NaN</code> is returned if <code>n</code> is invalid
	(unless <code>BigNumber.DEBUG</code> is <code>true</code>, see below).</p>
	<pre>
	new BigNumber('.1*') // 'NaN'
	new BigNumber('blurgh') // 'NaN'
	new BigNumber(9, 2) // 'NaN'</pre>
	<p>
	To aid in debugging, if <code>BigNumber.DEBUG</code> is <code>true</code> then an error will
	be thrown on an invalid <code>n</code>. An error will also be thrown if <code>n</code> is of
	type <em>number</em> and has more than <code>15</code> significant digits, as calling
	<code><a href='#toS'>toString</a></code> or <code><a href='#valueOf'>valueOf</a></code> on
	these numbers may not result in the intended value.
	</p>
	<pre>
	console.log(823456789123456.3) // 823456789123456.2
	new BigNumber(823456789123456.3) // '823456789123456.2'
	BigNumber.DEBUG = true
	// '[BigNumber Error] Number primitive has more than 15 significant digits'
	new BigNumber(823456789123456.3)
	// '[BigNumber Error] Not a base 2 number'
	new BigNumber(9, 2)</pre>
	<p>
	A BigNumber can also be created from an object literal.
	Use <code><a href='#isBigNumber'>isBigNumber</a></code> to check that it is well-formed.
	</p>
	<pre>new BigNumber({ s: 1, e: 2, c: [ 777, 12300000000000 ], _isBigNumber: true }) // '777.123'</pre>

	<h4 id="type-coercion">Type coercion</h4>
	<p>
	To prevent the accidental use of a BigNumber in primitive number operations, or the
	accidental addition of a BigNumber to a string, the <code>valueOf</code> method can be safely
	overwritten as shown below.
	</p>
	<p>
	The <a href='#valueOf'><code>valueOf</code></a> method is the same as the
	<a href='#toJSON'><code>toJSON</code></a> method, and both are the same as the
	<a href='#toS'><code>toString</code></a> method except they do not take a <code>base</code>
	argument and they include the minus sign for negative zero.
	</p>
	<pre>
	BigNumber.prototype.valueOf = function () {
	throw Error('valueOf called!')
	}

	x = new BigNumber(1)
	x / 2 // '[BigNumber Error] valueOf called!'
	x + 'abc' // '[BigNumber Error] valueOf called!'
	</pre>



	<h4 id='faq'>FAQ</h4>

	<h6>Why are trailing fractional zeros removed from BigNumbers?</h6>
	<p>
	Some 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.
	</p>
	<pre>
	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</pre>
	<p>
	To specify the precision of a value is to specify that the value lies
	within a certain range.
	</p>
	<p>
	In the first example, <code>x</code> has a value of <code>1.0</code>. The trailing zero shows
	the precision of the value, implying that it is in the range <code>0.95</code> to
	<code>1.05</code>. Similarly, the precision indicated by the trailing zeros of <code>y</code>
	indicates that the value is in the range <code>1.09995</code> to <code>1.10005</code>.
	</p>
	<p>
	If we add the two lowest values in the ranges we have, <code>0.95 + 1.09995 = 2.04995</code>,
	and if we add the two highest values we have, <code>1.05 + 1.10005 = 2.15005</code>, so the
	range of the result of the addition implied by the precision of its operands is
	<code>2.04995</code> to <code>2.15005</code>.
	</p>
	<p>
	The result given by BigDecimal of <code>2.1000</code> however, indicates that the value is in
	the range <code>2.09995</code> to <code>2.10005</code> and therefore the precision implied by
	its trailing zeros may be misleading.
	</p>
	<p>
	In the second example, the true range is <code>4.122744</code> to <code>4.157256</code> yet
	the BigDecimal answer of <code>4.1400000</code> indicates a range of <code>4.13999995</code>
	to <code>4.14000005</code>. Again, the precision implied by the trailing zeros may be
	misleading.
	</p>
	<p>
	This library, like binary floating point and most calculators, does not retain trailing
	fractional zeros. Instead, the <code>toExponential</code>, <code>toFixed</code> and
	<code>toPrecision</code> methods enable trailing zeros to be added if and when required.<br />
