Noob question about the Web3 Javascript API.

When I use web3.eth.getTransaction()web3.eth.getTransaction(), the object that comes back has some properties that I cannot seem to find in the documentation. For example, here is what I'm seeing when I run web3.eth.getTransaction()web3.eth.getTransaction().

{ blockHash: '0xf2a40da650009deb5b064660c2b3fd8030a1bb0e9e92ed38ab66813cc366c7e0',
  blockNumber: 3593309,
  from: '0x485fbe8fce05a862832ddc9464e96be131544c45',
  gas: 147622,
  gasPrice: { [String: '211000000000'] s: 1, e: 11, c: [ 211000000000 ] },
  hash: '0xdbbcb4d5be94f56ee23bcf7b9f42fa72294d6f5b735f994a05e122e2a2687f51',

  nonce: 34,
  to: '0x1d0dcc8d8bcafa8e8502beaeef6cbd49d3affcdc',
  transactionIndex: 0,
  value: { [String: '500000000000000000'] s: 1, e: 17, c: [ 5000 ] },
  v: '0x26',
  r: '0x48a7fbc581ec4a7509cabbb0d603eceeaf5d43901128fa79b33f0bc73d41ad13',

For comparison, here is what the Web3 JavaScript documentation shows:

{ "hash": "0x9fc76417374aa880d4449a1f7f31ec597f00b1f6f3dd2d66f4c9c6c445836d8b",

  "value": BigNumber,
  "gas": 314159,
  "gasPrice": BigNumber,
  "input": "0x57cb2fc4"}

What are the "v", "r", and "s" properties? And what are "s", "e", and "c" within the "value" object?

Is there an updated documentation I should be looking at? If it matters, I'm using web3 v 0.20.1web3 v 0.20.1 with a local instance of Geth.

Web3 Javascript API -- Transaction Object Not Matching Documentation

Noob question about the Web3 Javascript API.

What are the "v", "r", and "s" properties? And what are "s", "e", and "c" within the "value" object?

Is there an updated documentation I should be looking at? If it matters, I'm using web3 v 0.20.1 with a local instance of Geth.
