Optimize Toolset

I’ve always been into building performant and accessible sites, but lately I’ve been taking it extremely seriously. So much so that I’ve been building a tool to help me optimize and monitor the sites that I build to make sure that I’m making an attempt to offer the best experience to those who visit them. If you’re into performant, accessible and SEO friendly sites, you might like it too! You can check it out at Optimize Toolset.

About

Hi, 👋, I’m Ryan Hefner  and I built this site for me, and you! The goal of this site was to provide an easy way for me to check the stats on my npm packages, both for prioritizing issues and updates, and to give me a little kick in the pants to keep up on stuff.

As I was building it, I realized that I was actually using the tool to build the tool, and figured I might as well put this out there and hopefully others will find it to be a fast and useful way to search and browse npm packages as I have.

If you’re interested in other things I’m working on, follow me on Twitter or check out the open source projects I’ve been publishing on GitHub.

I am also working on a Twitter bot for this site to tweet the most popular, newest, random packages from npm. Please follow that account now and it will start sending out packages soon–ish.

Open Software & Tools

This site wouldn’t be possible without the immense generosity and tireless efforts from the people who make contributions to the world and share their work via open source initiatives. Thank you 🙏

bn-str-256

A simple, functional library for big number math, with up to 120 digits of precision, more than suitable for working with 256-bit/32-byte numbers used in domains like blockchain.

What sets this apart from other big number libraries is a very simple functional syntax where most operations result in a decimal string (e.g., '412.959'), which, depending on your application, may be a more useful representation.

Additionally, all functions accept plain numbers, decimal strings, exponential strings (e.g., '1.5e-8'), hex (e.g., '0xf00b47'), binary (e.g., '0b10011'), or octal (e.g., '04471') encodings, as well as node Buffer objects as input. The library can likewise convert numbers to any of these encodings or Buffer objects.

This library is built as a wrapper around the awesome decimal.js-light library.

Installation

npm install bn-str-256
# or
yarn add bn-str-256

Examples

const bn = require('bn-str-256');

// Add two numbers.
bn.add(1234, '0x4953'); // '20005'
// Subtract two numbers.
bn.sub(1234, '1.5e-3'); // '1233.9985''
// Multiply two numbers.
bn.mul('1234.521', '305'); // output '376528.905'
// Divide two numbers.
bn.div(1234, '0x4953'); // '0.06573970486...'
// Take the modulo of two numbers.
bn.mod('1.412e8', 33); // '29'
// Raise to a power.
bn.pow(1234, 8); // '5376767751082385640407296'
// Take the 3rd root.
bn.pow(1234, 1/3); // '10.7260146688...'
// Remove decimals.
bn.int(44.4121); // '44'
// Round.
bn.round(44.68); // '45'
// Count decimal places.
bn.dp(44.312); // 3
// Count significant digits.
bn.dp(44.312); // 5
// Truncate decimal places.
bn.dp(44.312, 2); // '44.31'
// Truncate significant digits.
bn.dp(44.312, 3); // '44.3'
// Get the sign of a number.
bn.sign('-31.4121'); // -1
// Work with some big numbers
bn.sub('0x8ffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff',
 '1591029491249109201931039109512131121212') // '51380915346385064...'

// Compare numbers a variety of ways.
bn.cmp(1, 2); // -1
bn.gt(321, 321); // false
bn.gte(321, 321); // true
bn.lt(320, 321); // true
bn.lte(320, 321); // true

// Take the minimum of two values.
bn.min('1294.31221944', '5.421e6'); // '1294.31221944'
// Take the maximum of two values.
bn.min('1294.31221944', '5.421e6'); // '5421000'
// Clamp a value to within an interval.
bn.min('1600', '1294.31221944', '5.421e6'); // '1600'

// Just parse a hex value.
bn.parse('0x49121') // '299297'
// Just parse a binary value.
bn.parse('0b1001') // '9'
// Just parse a Buffer object.
bn.parse(Buffer.from('foo')); // 6713199

// Do some math and output a hex string.
bn.toHex(bn.mul('3043131212', '495')); // 0x15eb97423f4
// Left pad a hex string to 20 digits.
bn.toHex('4491959969129121', 20); // 0x0000000ff569ee4e22a1
// Convert to a buffer.
bn.toBuffer('99129129412'); // <Buffer 17 14 8e 79 c4>
// Convert to native javascript Number type.
bn.toNumber('0x491fc712d'); // 19629109549

// Split a number up into its parts.
bn.split('-34.99'); // { sign: '-', integer: '34', decimal: '99' }
