Math Utilities

Divide

Performs precise division of two numbers via GET /v1/math/divide. Returns exact decimal results without floating-point errors that plague JavaScript's native division. Example: dividing 1 by 3 returns "0.3333333333333333" consistently. Essential for financial calculations, scientific computations, and any scenario where mathematical precision matters in MCP-enabled editors.

API Endpoint

GET /v1/math/divide

Code Examples

curl "https://tinyfn.io/v1/math/divide" \
  -H "X-API-Key: YOUR_API_KEY"
const response = await fetch('https://tinyfn.io/v1/math/divide', {
  headers: { 'X-API-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY' }
});
const data = await response.json();
console.log(data);
import requests

response = requests.get('https://tinyfn.io/v1/math/divide',
    headers={'X-API-Key': 'YOUR_API_KEY'})
data = response.json()
print(data)

FAQ

How does TinyFn division differ from JavaScript's built-in division?

TinyFn provides deterministic, consistent results across all environments, eliminating JavaScript's floating-point precision issues that can cause 0.1 + 0.2 ≠ 0.3 problems.

What happens when dividing by zero?

The API returns an error response with appropriate status code rather than JavaScript's Infinity result, allowing proper error handling in your application.

Can I use this for financial calculations in my MCP agent?

Yes, the deterministic results make it ideal for currency calculations where precision matters. AI agents in Cursor or Claude Code can rely on consistent decimal handling.

Does the divide tool handle negative numbers and decimals?

Yes, it processes positive/negative integers and decimals correctly, maintaining precision across all numeric types without rounding errors.

How do I pass parameters to the division endpoint?

Use query parameters: GET /v1/math/divide?a=10&b=3 returns the division result in a structured JSON response format.
