Cortex Compute Engine

Symbolic manipulation and numeric evaluation of MathJSON expressions

MathJSON is a lightweight mathematical notation interchange format based on JSON.

The Cortex Compute Engine can parse LaTeX to MathJSON, serialize MathJSON to LaTeX, format, simplify and evaluate MathJSON expressions.

Reference documentation and guides at cortexjs.io/compute-engine.

Using Compute Engine

$ npm install --save @cortex-js/compute-engine

import { parse, evaluate } from '@cortex-js/compute-engine';

const expr = parse('2^{11}-1 \\in \\P');

console.log(expr);
// ➔ ["Element", ["Subtract", ["Power", 2, 11] , 1], "PrimeNumber"]

console.log(evaluate(expr));
// ➔ "False"

Changelog

0.11.0 2022-11-18

Breaking Changes

• The signature of ce.defineSymbol(), ce.defineFunction() and ce.pushScope() have changed

Improvements

• When a constant should be held or substituted with its value can now be more precisely controlled. The hold symbol attribute is now holdUntil and can specify at which stage the substitution should take place.

Issues Resolved

• Some constants would return a value as bignum or complex even when the numericMode did not allow it.
• Changing the value or domain of a symbol is now correctly taken into account. Changes can be made with ce.assume(), ce.set() or expr.value.
• When a symbol does not have a value associated with it, assumptions about it (e.g. "x > 0") are now correctly tracked and reflected.
