npm install two-sum
``javascript
var twoSum = require("two-sum")
//Add two wildly different sized floats
var result = twoSum(1e64, 1e-64)
console.log(result)
//Prints:
// [1e-64, 1e64]
`
* a is a numberb
* is a numberresult
* is an optional length 2 array encoding the result of the sum of a and b`
Returns A length 2 array representing the non-overlapping sequence encoding the sum of a and b. The first term has smaller magnitude than the second.
