It's a measurement of throughput. So the maximum data transferred/sec at any given time.

Good call, I'll update the pricing to clarify that.

Hey sorry, this was a typo. It's cents :)

Hey thanks for checking it out. We're working on a few ways to make the pricing easier to digest.

We've been discussing a free starting point, but haven't solidified anything just yet.

Right now we're bootstrapped. There's only three of us, so the focus so far has been on getting the product in a useable and workable state.

Great, it'd be sweet to have you involved! FFT, polynomial fit, and d3.js would be huge steps. For me, the most important thing is ensuring that all changes are application driven. Building a library that's designed to be used is top priority.
This is a fantastic list. There are a few people who've expressed interest in working on eigenvalue work. I'll definitely be adding a couple of these in, in the next few days. I'll keep you posted.
Yeah, I really tried to keep elements of the browser in mind. Games and graphics definitely can benefit from algebra and calculus.
That'd be great
yes, we're currently doing that. look here: https://github.com/sjkaliski/numbers.js/blob/master/lib/numb...
great! ping me at [email protected] if need be
Most certainly. Would love to push the statistics further. Working on integrating some econometrics tools in the next version.
My primary focus from here on out is statistics and matrix algebra focused on powering analytics. So yes, some of those functions would be of interest to me.
Glad you like it! I'd love to know how it goes if you make use of it.

In your browser console, run: 0.3 + 0.544 You'll get back 0.8440000000000001

In practice (especially if in the browser), the difference is either irrelevant (in CSS 1px == 1.1px) or not significant. But in accumulation, it could be problematic.

Great point! We just updated the copy to reflect what you can do with the app. We'll update it more permanently to reflect your suggestions in the next few hours. Thanks again!
