math-easy
is a lightweight npm module that provides a collection of simple and useful mathematical functions. From factorials and prime number checking to geometric and harmonic means, math-easy
covers a wide range of mathematical needs, with built-in error handling and type checking.
Installation
To install the module, use npm:
npm install @mjmaurya/math-easy
Usage
After installation, you can import and use any of the available functions in your project.
Example
const math = require('@mjmaurya/math-easy');
// Factorial of 5
console.log(math.factorial(5)); // Output: 120
// Check if a number is prime
console.log(math.isPrime(7)); // Output: true
// Calculate the GCD of two numbers
console.log(math.gcd(24, 36)); // Output: 12
// Find the LCM of two numbers
console.log(math.lcm(12, 15)); // Output: 60
// Generate Fibonacci sequence up to nth position
console.log(math.fibonacci(7)); // Output: [0, 1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13]
// Calculate the average of an array of numbers
console.log(math.average([1, 2, 3, 4, 5])); // Output: 3
