Bigint overview

This module provides utility functions and type class instances for working with the bigint type in TypeScript. It includes functions for basic arithmetic operations, as well as type class instances for Equivalence, Order, Semigroup, and Monoid.

guards

isBigint

Tests if a value is a bigint.

Signature

export declare const isBigint: (u: unknown) => u is bigint

Example

import { isBigint } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

assert.deepStrictEqual(isBigint(1n), true)
assert.deepStrictEqual(isBigint(1), false)

instances

Equivalence

Signature

export declare const Equivalence: equivalence.Equivalence<bigint>

Added in v1.0.0

Signature

export declare const Order: order.Order<bigint>

math

decrement

Decrements a number by 1n.

divide

If the dividend is not a multiple of the divisor the result will be a bigint value which represents the integer division rounded down to the nearest integer.

Example

import { divide } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

Signature

export declare const subtract: { (that: bigint): (self: bigint) => bigint; (self: bigint, that: bigint): bigint }

import { subtract } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

assert.deepStrictEqual(subtract(2n, 3n), -1n)

Added in v1.0.0

sum

Provides an addition operation on bigints.

Signature

export declare const sum: { (that: bigint): (self: bigint) => bigint; (self: bigint, that: bigint): bigint }

Example

import { sum } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

assert.deepStrictEqual(sum(2n, 3n), 5n)

Added in v1.0.0

sumAll

Takes an Iterable of bigints and returns their sum as a single `bigint

Signature

export declare const sumAll: (collection: Iterable<bigint>) => bigint

Example

import { sumAll } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

assert.deepStrictEqual(sumAll([2n, 3n, 4n]), 9n)

Signature

export declare const between: {
  (minimum: bigint, maximum: bigint): (self: bigint) => boolean
  (self: bigint, minimum: bigint, maximum: bigint): boolean
}

Example

import { between } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

assert.deepStrictEqual(between(0n, 5n)(3n), true)

utils

clamp

Restricts the given bigint to be within the range specified by the minimum and maximum values.

  • If the bigint is less than the minimum value, the function returns the minimum value.
  • If the bigint is greater than the maximum value, the function returns the maximum value.
  • Otherwise, it returns the original bigint.

Signature

export declare const clamp: {
  (minimum: bigint, maximum: bigint): (self: bigint) => bigint
  (self: bigint, minimum: bigint, maximum: bigint): bigint
}

Example

import { clamp } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

assert.deepStrictEqual(clamp(0n, 5n)(3n), 3n)
assert.deepStrictEqual(clamp(0n, 5n)(-1n), 0n)
assert.deepStrictEqual(clamp(0n, 5n)(6n), 5n)

max

Returns the maximum between two bigints.

Signature

export declare const max: { (that: bigint): (self: bigint) => bigint; (self: bigint, that: bigint): bigint }

Example

import { max } from '@effect/data/Bigint'

assert.deepStrictEqual(max(2n, 3n), 3n)

Added in v1.0.0

min

Returns the minimum between two bigints.

Signature

export declare const min: { (that: bigint): (self: bigint) => bigint; (self: bigint, that: bigint): bigint }
