Solution to JavaScript's 0.1 + 0.2 = 0.30000000000000004 problem?

Open your JavaScript console and try this:

> 0.1 + 0.2 == 0.3

  false

> 0.1 + 0.2

  0.30000000000000004

You may ask yourself Is floating point math broken?.  The answer is that JavaScript uses floating point math based on the IEEE 754 standard, the same as Java’s double. If you want the details on what that means, either quickly read The Floating-Point Guide - What Every Programmer Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic or fully digest What Every Computer Scientist Should Know About Floating-Point Arithmetic.

But if I really want 0.1 + 0.2 == 0.3 then what do I do?  The Java BigDecimal class solved this problem, and there similar solutions for JavaScript: GWT compiled to JavaScript version; a JavaScript translation of the ICU4J’s com.ibm.icu.math.BigDecimal.

There are also other JavaScript libraries like big.js.  Here is big.js in action from the JavaScript console:

> Big(0.1).plus(0.2).eq(0.3)

  true

> Big(0.1).plus(0.2).toString()

  "0.3"

How have other teams solved this problem?  Is there a de facto JavaScript library to use that has been well tested?  Would a common library be useful?
