decimal.js is a JavaScript library that provides an arbitrary-precision decimal data type designed to overcome the limitations of native floating-point arithmetic in JavaScript. It allows developers to perform accurate calculations with numbers of virtually unlimited precision, making it especially useful for financial, scientific, and high-precision applications. Unlike standard JavaScript numbers, which can produce rounding errors due to binary representation, decimal.js ensures consistent and predictable results by operating on decimal values directly. ...

bignumber.js is a JavaScript library for arbitrary-precision decimal and non-decimal arithmetic. Faster, smaller, and perhaps easier to use than JavaScript versions of Java's BigDecimal. Replicates the toExponential, toFixed, toPrecision and toString methods of JavaScript's Number type. Includes a toFraction and a correctly-rounded squareRoot method. Supports cryptographically secure pseudo-random number generation.

For arbitrary precision mathematics PHP offers the Binary Calculator which supports numbers of any size and precision, represented as strings. This project replicates this in JavaScript (bcadd, bccomp, bcdiv, bcmul, bcsub, etc)
