      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

        A numeric value.
      </dd>
      <dd>
        Legitimate values include <code>&plusmn;0</code>,
        <code>&plusmn;Infinity</code> and <code>NaN</code>.
      </dd>
      <dd>
        Values of type <em>number</em> with more than 15 significant digits are
        considered invalid as calling <code>toString</code> or
        <code>valueOf</code> on such numbers may not result in the intended
        value.
        <pre>console.log( 823456789123456.3 );    // 823456789123456.2</pre>
      </dd>
      <dd>
        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).
      </dd>
      <dd>
        Decimal string values may be in exponential, as well as normal
        (fixed-point) notation. Non-decimal values must be in normal
        notation.
      </dd>
      <dd>
        String values in hexadecimal literal form, e.g. <code>'0xff'</code>, are
        invalid, and string values in octal literal form will be interpreted as
        decimals, e.g. <code>'011'</code> is interpreted as 11, not 9.
      </dd>
      <dd>Values in any base may have fraction digits.</dd>
      <dd>
        For bases from 10 to 36, lower and/or upper case letters can be used to
        represent values from 10 to 35. For bases above 36, <code>a-z</code>
        represents values from 10 to 35, <code>A-Z</code> from 36 to 61, and
        <code>$</code> and <code>_</code> represent 62 and 63 respectively <i>
        (this can be changed by editing the <code>DIGITS</code> variable near
        the top of the source file).</i>

      the current <a href='#decimal-places'><code>DECIMAL_PLACES</code></a> and
      <a href='#rounding-mode'><code>ROUNDING_MODE</code></a> settings.
      Usefully, this means the decimal places of a decimal value
      passed to the constructor can be limited by explicitly specifying base 10.

          <dd>
            If a single number is assigned, the value is the exponent magnitude.

            If an array of two numbers is assigned then the first number is the

            Regardless of the value of <code>EXPONENTIAL_AT</code>, the

            always return a value in exponential form.

            Calling <code>toString</code> with a base argument, e.g.

    <h3>INSTANCE</h3>

    <h4 id="prototype-methods">Methods</h4>
    <p>
      The methods inherited by a BigNumber instance from its constructor's
      prototype object.
    </p>
    <p>
      A BigNumber is immutable in the sense that it is not changed by its
      methods.
    </p>
    <p>
      The treatment of &plusmn;<code>0</code>, &plusmn;<code>Infinity</code> and
      <code>NaN</code> is consistent with how JavaScript treats these values.
    </p>
    <p>
      Many method names have a shorter alias.<br />
      Internally, the library always uses the shorter method names.
    </p>

    <p>
      The value of any of the three properties may also be <code>null</code>.
    </p>
    <p>
      From version 2 of this library, the value of the coefficient of a
      BigNumber is stored in a normalised base <code>100000000000000</code>
      floating point format, as opposed to the base 10 format used in version 1.
    </p>
    <p>
      This change means the properties of a BigNumber are now best considered to
      be read-only. Previously it was acceptable to change the exponent of a
      BigNumber by writing to its exponent property directly, but this is no
      longer recommended as the number of digits in the first element of the
      coefficient array is dependent on the exponent, so the coefficient would
      also need to be altered.
    </p>
    <p>
      Note that, as with JavaScript numbers, the original exponent and
      fractional trailing zeros are not preserved.

    <h6>Why are trailing fractional zeros removed from BigNumbers?</h6>
    <p>
      Many 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 1.0. The trailing zero
      shows the precision of the value, implying that it is in the range 0.95 to
      1.05. Similarly, the precision indicated by the trailing zeros of
      <code>y</code> indicates that the value is in the range 1.09995 to
      1.10005. If we add the two lowest values in the ranges we get 0.95 +
      1.09995 = 2.04995 and if we add the two highest values we get 1.05 +
      1.10005 = 2.15005, so the range of the result of the addition implied by
      the precision of its operands is 2.04995 to 2.15005. The result given by
      BigDecimal of 2.1000 however, indicates that the value is in the range
      2.09995 to 2.10005 and therefore the precision implied by its trailing
      zeros is misleading.
    </p>
    <p>
      In the second example, the true range is 4.122744 to 4.157256 yet the
      BigDecimal answer of 4.1400000 indicates a range of 4.13999995 to
      4.14000005. Again, the precision implied by the trailing zeros is
      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.
