num_parser2

num_parser2 is a math interpreter and evaluator, it is fork of num_parser. num_parser2 allows you to easily parse strings into math expressions and evaluate them.

Features

• Binary and unary operators
• Supports multiple value types:
  • Bool,
  • Int,
  • Float,
  • Complex,
  • Vector
• Built-in functions
• Built-in constants
• User-defined functions: f(x,y) = xsin(y)+ysin(x)
• User-defined var: a = pi/2 or b = a+2
• Define you own functions with macros.
• Understands ambiguous syntax, like: g(x) = pisinx
• Recursion: f(x) = branch(x<=2, 1, f(x-1)+f(x-2))
• Serde support
• No panicking

Much more will be implemented in future releases!

Use Guide

Evaluating simple static expressions:

use num_parser2::*;

assert_eq!(eval("2+2").unwrap(), Value::from(4));
assert_eq!(eval("sin(pi)").unwrap(), Value::from(0));
assert_eq!(eval("re(10+3i)").unwrap(), Value::from(10));

Using contexts:

use num_parser2::*;

let mut context = Context::default();
// Declaring a function
let res = eval_with_mutable_context(
    "f(x) = branch(x<=2, 1, f(x-1) + f(x-2))",
    &mut context
).unwrap();

// Result is None
assert_eq!(res, None);
// Calling the function. We could just use eval_with_static_context at this point
let res = eval_with_mutable_context("f(10)", &mut context).unwrap();

assert_eq!(res, Some(Value::from(55)));

Values

Values are contained inside the Value enum, which provides useful functions to access the contained data:

use num_parser2::Value;

let value = Value::Float(1.0);

assert_eq!(value.as_bool().unwrap(), true);
assert_eq!(value.as_int().unwrap(), 1);
assert_eq!(value.as_float().unwrap(), 1.0);
assert_eq!(value.as_complex().unwrap(), num::complex::Complex::new(1.0, 0.0));
assert_eq!(value.as_vector(), vec![Value::Float(1.0)]);

// Assign type implicitly:
let implicit = Value::from(1.0);

assert_eq!(value, implicit);

Note that, even thought the initial value was a float, it has been cast into ints and bools. This was possible since the value had no decimal part and it was a one. If these conditions were not met, the cast would have failed.

Functions

Context

Contexts allows you keep track of user-defined functions and variables, as well as settings. They can be created as follows:

use num_parser2::*;

// Generate the default context
let mut default = Context::default();

// Generate a custom context
let mut custom = Context::new(
    settings::Rounding::NoRounding,
    settings::AngleUnit::Degree,
    settings::DepthLimit::NoLimit
);

Serde

You can use the optional feature serde_support to let all the public structs derive Serialize and Deserialize.
