### using Nix
Alternatively, you can use [nix](https://nixos.org) to build or run this project.
Running directly:
```sh

## Evolution
### Ploting
Plot functions (both stdlib, and runtime) would be useful and appreciated.
Plotting is powered by gnuplot, it will works on Unix-like (MacOS, Linux) but I don't have any idea about Windows
- [X] Plot stdlib functions
- [X] Plot runtime functions
- [X] Save plot to png/svg/pdf
- [X] Add terminal ploting
- [X] Calculate ploting height and width
- [X] Computes individual points
- [X] Generate each line
- [X] Prints each line
- [X] Auto level x axis in termplot
- [X] Auto level y axis in termplot
#### Example of plotting
You can plot function defined in the standard library of calc or user defined functions, to display the help just type `plot()`
You can then plot for example
Plotting cos with the default values (from 0 to 3pi, with a step of 0.01pi)
Plotting sin with custom values (from -pi to pi, with a step of 0.01rad, with line, title, x label, y label)
Defining f(x) = x² and plotting it with custom values (from -10 to 10, with a step of 0.1, with linespoint)
#### Example of terminal plotting
You can plot in the terminal, for example
And it supports the labels too
And now it auto scales on y!
### 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
- [X] Rational calculation
- [X] Implement rational numbers operations
- [X] Rational reduction
- [X] Literal calculation
- [X] Computes literal expression with uninitialized operators
- [X] Literal reduction
- [ ] Irrational calculation
- [ ] Implement irrational numbers operations
- [ ] Irrational reduction
#### Example of rational computations
As of 2.11.0 the support for rational exact math has been implemented
As of 2.11.1 it works in matrices!
As of 2.11.4 floats are automatically rationalized (with 10 decimal points of precision)
### 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.
You can interact with the configuration with the command line, more info in [the web page](https://calc.nwa2coco.fr/config.html)
### 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)
### Vectorization
Function are now vectorized! Just pass a vector as an argument!
## 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
As of 2.11.3 matrices are pretty printed !
## Non interactive use
As of 2.12.0 non interactive use was added
