Rationale

I often find myself using numeric.js' rep method in my projects. However, for many things pulling in all of numeric.js is total overkill, especially for code that ultimately needs to run on the browser. So I decided to make this library which just implements the rep and nothing else in the spirit of promoting modularity by smaller and more numerous packages.
