Evolution

Ploting

Plot functions (both stdlib, and runtime) would be useful and appreciated.

• Plot stdlib functions
•  Plot runtime functions
• Save plot to png/svg/pdf

Exact math calculator

As this project provides a frontend with a parser we could plug an exact math engine in the backend to transform calc into a real exact math calculator. TODO List for the Exact Math Engine

• Rational calculation
  • Implement rational numbers operations
  • Rational reduction
• Irrational calculation
  • Implement irrational numbers operations
  • Irrational reduction
• Literal calculation
  • Computes literal expression with uninitialized operators
  • Literal reduction

CAS

If we ever go to this step, yes, I will remove the "minimalistic" from the description

• It's hard.

Examples

REPL with only Lexing (verbose mode: on by default)

REPL with lexing and basic operation parsing (verbose mode: on by default)

REPL and functionning interpreter (verbose mode: off by default)

Configuration

You can configure the general color, greeting message, greeting color, prompt and prompt color from the file for example in (for linux)

~/.config/mini-calc/mini-calc.toml

Or situated in your operating system config folder.

What the configuration looks like

The default configuration looks like this

Colors

Available colors are

• purple
• cyan
• blue
• black
• red
• yellow
• green
• white
• an hexadecimal colour (ex: "#f7a8d8")

Default colour (if the configuration fail to load) is Cyan.

Example of a modified configuration

Configuration:

It looks like:

Functions

The following functions are available

• sin
• cos
• tan
• sinh
• cosh
• tanh
• asin
• acos
• atan
• exp
• ln (alias: log)
• sqrt
• factorial (alias: fact)
• abs
• ceil
• floor
• round

Trigonometry

For trigonometry, the input are assumed to be in radian, if not, you have to put "false" or "true" as second argument, example shown bellow

Exp/ln

If you use the exp function you can pass a second argument for the base you are using, if no second arguments are passed this is assumed to be in natural base

Root

You can take the nth root with the sqrt function, by default it takes the second root.

Round

You can round to the nth decimal with the round function, by default it round to the integer (floor)

Logic

You can now use logic! I implemented the following functions:

• or (alias : ||)
• and (alias : &&)
• geq (alias : >=)
• gt (alias : >)
• leq (alias : <=)
• lt (alias :<)
• eq (alias : ==)

Example:

User defined functions!

You can define your own functions!

Vector calculation !

You can use vectors!

• add vector to each others
• added the norm function to compute the norm
• dot product between two vectors ( * operator)

Functions added:

• norm

Matrices !

As of 2.7.0 matrix algebra is implemented (using lup reduction)

• you can add matrices
• multiply compatible matrices

functions added

• transpose
• invert
• det
