The Unpaid Backbone of Open Source: Solo Maintainers Face Increasing Security Demands
Solo open source maintainers face burnout and security challenges, with 60% unpaid and 60% considering quitting.

We believe in a future in which the web is a preferred environment for numerical computation. To help realize this future, we've built stdlib. stdlib is a standard library, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computation, written in JavaScript (and C) for execution in browsers and in Node.js.
The library is fully decomposable, being architected in such a way that you can swap out and mix and match APIs and functionality to cater to your exact preferences and use cases.
When you use stdlib, you can be absolutely certain that you are using the most thorough, rigorous, well-written, studied, documented, tested, measured, and high-quality code out there.
To join us in bringing numerical computing to the web, get started by checking us out on GitHub, and please consider financially supporting stdlib. We greatly appreciate your continued support!
Constants.
npm install @stdlib/constants
var constants = require( '@stdlib/constants' );
Namespace containing constants.
var ns = constants;
// returns {...}
Constants are split across the the following sub-namespaces:
array
: array constants.complex128
: 128-bit complex number mathematical constant.complex64
: half-precision floating-point mathematical constants.float16
: half-precision floating-point mathematical constants.float32
: single-precision floating-point mathematical constants.float64
: double-precision floating-point mathematical constants.int16
: 16-bit signed integer mathematical constants.int32
: 32-bit signed integer mathematical constants.int8
: 8-bit signed integer mathematical constants.path
: path constants.time
: time constants.uint16
: 16-bit unsigned integer mathematical constants.uint32
: 32-bit unsigned integer mathematical constants.uint8
: 8-bit unsigned integer mathematical constants.unicode
: unicode constants.var objectKeys = require( '@stdlib/utils/keys' );
var constants = require( '@stdlib/constants' );
var out = constants.float64.PI;
// returns ~3.142
out = constants.array.MAX_ARRAY_LENGTH;
// returns 4294967295
out = constants.time.HOURS_IN_DAY;
// returns 24
This package is part of stdlib, a standard library for JavaScript and Node.js, with an emphasis on numerical and scientific computing. The library provides a collection of robust, high performance libraries for mathematics, statistics, streams, utilities, and more.
