Number pairing functions with support for BigInt numbers.
npm install pairing
import { elegant } from 'pairing';
// encode bigint numbers
const z = elegant.encode(3037000499n, 2891526307n); // returns 9223372036854775807n
// decode bigint number
const [x, y] = elegant.decode(9223372036854775807n); // returns [3037000499n, 2891526307n]
