// load math.js (using node.js)
var math = require('../index');

// 1. using the function math.eval
//
// Function `eval` accepts a single expression or an array with
// expressions as first argument, and has an optional second argument
// containing a scope with variables and functions. The scope is a regular
// JavaScript Object. The scope will be used to resolve symbols, and to write
// assigned variables or function.
console.log('1. USING FUNCTION MATH.EVAL');

// evaluate expressions
console.log('\nevaluate expressions');
print(math.eval('sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)'));        // 5
print(math.eval('sqrt(-4)'));               // 2i
print(math.eval('2 inch to cm'));           // 5.08 cm
print(math.eval('cos(45 deg)'));            // 0.70711

// evaluate multiple expressions at once
console.log('\nevaluate multiple expressions at once');
print(math.eval([
  'f = 3',
  'g = 4',
  'f * g'
]));                                        // [3, 4, 12]

// provide a scope (just a regular JavaScript Object)
console.log('\nevaluate expressions providing a scope with variables and functions');
var scope = {
  a: 3,
  b: 4
};

// variables can be read from the scope
print(math.eval('a * b', scope));           // 12

// variable assignments are written to the scope
print(math.eval('c = 2.3 + 4.5', scope));   // 6.8
print(scope.c);                             // 6.8

// scope can contain both variables and functions
scope.hello = function (name) {
  return 'hello, ' + name + '!';
};
print(math.eval('hello("hero")', scope));   // "hello, hero!"

// define a function as an expression
var f = math.eval('f(x) = x ^ a', scope);
print(f(2));                                // 8
print(scope.f(2));                          // 8



// 2. using function math.parse
//
// Function `math.parse` parses expressions into a node tree. The syntax is
// similar to function `math.eval`.
// Function `parse` accepts a single expression or an array with
// expressions as first argument. The function returns a node tree, which
// then can be compiled against math, and then evaluated against an (optional
// scope. This scope is a regular JavaScript Object. The scope will be used
// to resolve symbols, and to write assigned variables or function.
console.log('\n2. USING FUNCTION MATH.PARSE');

// parse an expression
console.log('\nparse an expression into a node tree');
var node1 = math.parse('sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)');
print(node1.toString());                    // "sqrt((3 ^ 2) + (4 ^ 2))"

// compile and evaluate the compiled code
// you could also do this in two steps: node1.compile().eval()
print(node1.eval());                        // 5

// provide a scope
console.log('\nprovide a scope');
var node2 = math.parse('x^a');
var code2 = node2.compile();
print(node2.toString());                    // "x ^ a"
var scope = {
  x: 3,
  a: 2
};
print(code2.eval(scope));                   // 9

// change a value in the scope and re-evaluate the node
scope.a = 3;
print(code2.eval(scope));                   // 27


// 3. using function math.compile
//
// Function `math.compile` compiles expressions into a node tree. The syntax is
// similar to function `math.eval`.
// Function `compile` accepts a single expression or an array with
// expressions as first argument, and returns an object with a function eval
// to evaluate the compiled expression. On evaluation, an optional scope can
// be provided. This scope will be used to resolve symbols, and to write
// assigned variables or function.
console.log('\n3. USING FUNCTION MATH.COMPILE');

// parse an expression
console.log('\ncompile an expression');
var code3 = math.compile('sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)');

// evaluate the compiled code
print(code3.eval());                        // 5

// provide a scope for the variable assignment
console.log('\nprovide a scope');
var code2 = math.compile('a = a + 3');
var scope = {
  a: 7
};
code2.eval(scope);
print(scope.a);                             // 10


// 4. using a parser
//
// In addition to the static functions `math.eval` and `math.parse`, math.js
// contains a parser with functions `eval` and `parse`, which automatically
// keeps a scope with assigned variables in memory. The parser also contains
// some convenience methods to get, set, and remove variables from memory.
console.log('\n4. USING A PARSER');
var parser = math.parser();

// evaluate with parser
console.log('\nevaluate expressions');
print(parser.eval('sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)'));          // 5
print(parser.eval('sqrt(-4)'));                 // 2i
print(parser.eval('2 inch to cm'));             // 5.08 cm
print(parser.eval('cos(45 deg)'));              // 0.70711

// define variables and functions
console.log('\ndefine variables and functions');
print(parser.eval('x = 7 / 2'));                // 3.5
print(parser.eval('x + 3'));                    // 6.5
print(parser.eval('f(x, y) = x^y'));            // f(x, y)
print(parser.eval('f(2, 3)'));                  // 8

// manipulate matrices
// Note that matrix indexes in the expression parser are one-based with the
// upper-bound included. On a JavaScript level however, math.js uses zero-based
// indexes with an excluded upper-bound.
console.log('\nmanipulate matrices');
print(parser.eval('k = [1, 2; 3, 4]'));         // [[1, 2], [3, 4]]
print(parser.eval('l = zeros(2, 2)'));          // [[0, 0], [0, 0]]
print(parser.eval('l[1, 1:2] = [5, 6]'));       // [[5, 6], [0, 0]]
print(parser.eval('l[2, :] = [7, 8]'));         // [[5, 6], [7, 8]]
print(parser.eval('m = k * l'));                // [[19, 22], [43, 50]]
print(parser.eval('n = m[2, 1]'));              // 43
print(parser.eval('n = m[:, 1]'));              // [[19], [43]]

// get and set variables and functions
console.log('\nget and set variables and function in the scope of the parser');
var x = parser.get('x');
console.log('x =', x);                          // x = 7
var f = parser.get('f');
console.log('f =', math.format(f));             // f = f(x, y)
var g = f(3, 3);
console.log('g =', g);                          // g = 27

parser.set('h', 500);
print(parser.eval('h / 2'));                    // 250
parser.set('hello', function (name) {
  return 'hello, ' + name + '!';
});
print(parser.eval('hello("hero")'));            // "hello, hero!"
