MathJSLab - An interpreter with language syntax like MATLAB®/Octave. ISBN 978-65-00-82338-7
An interpreter with language syntax like MATLAB®/Octave written in Typescript.
ISBN 978-65-00-82338-7
This package emulates a parser and evaluator for a subset of MATLAB®/Octave language. It is written completely in Typescript.
It can run in browser environment and implements an arbitrary precision arithmetics using decimal.js package.
It uses the ANTLR parser generator to generate a parser that create an AST (Abstract Syntax Tree) of input.
Other components besides the parser are the evaluator, which computes the inputs, and the MathML unparser, that generates mathematical representations of the inputs and results.
This software is intended for educational purposes, to provide teachers and students with a computer aided calculation tool that is capable of running in a browser environment. So it can be easily adapted to be used on different devices and environments.
A functional demo use of this package in a Web application can be found here.
MathJSLab works on any ES2016 compatible JavaScript engine, including Node.js, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, and Edge.
Install the mathjslab package:
npm install mathjslab
The basic API is an instantiation of Evaluator with optional configuration.
Import MathJSLab API:
import { Evaluator, TEvaluatorConfig } from 'mathjslab';
Initialize evaluator with:
let evaluator = new Evaluator(EvaluatorConfiguration);
let input = evaluator.Parse('x=sqrt(1+2*3)');
let result = evaluator.Evaluate(input);
let mathmlInput = evaluator.UnparseMathML(input);
let mathmlResult = evaluator.UnparseMathML(result);
You can optimize your application, reducing the size of your bundle, loading MathJSLab via the UNPKG CDN.

The module will be loaded with mathjslab name. You can instantiate Evaluator with:
let evaluator = new mathjslab.Evaluator(EvaluatorConfiguration);

Run the mathjslab tests:
npm run test
Build mathjslab:
npm run build
Currently only the mathematical expressions of the language are implemented. The control and loop structures are not yet implemented.
There are some differences from the original MATLAB®/Octave language. The main difference is that there are only one a complex numeric type. Other implemented types is boolean, character string, structure and function handle.
Common arrays (not only cell arrays) can hold any type of element.
