BigNumber.js is a JavaScript library that provides arbitrary-precision arithmetic for working with large numbers in JavaScript. It allows you to perform accurate calculations with numbers that exceed the limitations of standard JavaScript numbers, which are limited to 64-bit floating-point precision. BigNumber.js offers a wide range of mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and more, ensuring precision and accuracy in calculations.
Compared to other libraries like Decimal.js or math.js, BigNumber.js is specifically focused on providing arbitrary-precision arithmetic, making it a go-to choice for applications that require precise numerical computations with large numbers.
