Is it possible to use JavaScript libraries in SoloLearn?

I'm writing some code that has to do with pi, and I need to calculate it to quite a significant number of decimal places. Without using any libraries, I can use the toFixed() function, but it seems to only work for displaying the number, and not for calculating it (it just stops calculating beyond a specific point). I was wondering if I have to use a JS library or not, and if so, is it possible to use them in SoloLearn? Thanks in advance!

If I recall correctly, Javascript isn't the best when getting accurate decimal numbers. But yeah, you should definitely try using some outside libraries. I just did a simple Google search and saw bignum as one people use for precise decimal digits.

Ah I see! I'm just doing this as a fun project and not for anything serious, so I'm not too worried about getting super accurate decimal numbers. I'll go check out some libraries now. Thank you for the answer!

David (DonDejvo) The main focus of the OP's question was about libraries, not just this one case. So the downvote you did does not make sense because I answered accurately about being about to use libraries in SL.
