API documentation can be found here.

To generate the documentation on your local development environment, run:

npm run gen-docs

Examples

Here are some examples of how to use the utility methods from the package:

note: CommonJS usage

To gain the TypeScript typings (for intellisense / autocomplete) while using CommonJS imports with require(), use the following approach:

const divisor = require('divisor');

note: ES Modules usage

To gain the TypeScript typings (for intellisense / autocomplete) while using ES Module imports with import, use the following approach:

import divisor from 'divisor';

Calculating single number divisors

To get the divisors of a number:

const divisors = divisor.getDivisors(20);
// outputs => [ 1, 20, 2, 10, 4, 5 ]

To get the sorted divisors of a number:

const sortedDivisors = divisor.getDivisors(20, { sort: 'asc' });
// outputs => [ 1, 2, 4, 5, 10, 20 ]

Divisor Options

{
  sort?: string | undefined; // optional - supports 'asc' | 'desc'
  onlyProperDivisors?: boolean; // optional
}

Calculating common divisors of two numbers

To get all common divisors:

const commonDivisors = divisor.getCommonDivisors(20, 100);
// outputs => [ 1, 20, 2, 10, 4, 5 ]
const sortedCommonDivisors = divisor.getCommonDivisors(20, 100, {
  sort: 'desc', // supports 'asc' | 'desc'
});
// [ 20, 10, 5, 4, 2, 1 ]

To get the greatest common divisor - gcd:

const gcd = divisor.greatestCommonDivisor(20, 100);
// outputs => 20

To get the least common multiple - lcm:

const lcm = divisor.leastCommonMultiple(11, 67);
// outputs => 737
