# lieval
`lieval` is a lightweight Rust crate for parsing and evaluating mathematical expressions from strings.
## Features
- Parse and evaluate simple mathematical expressions.
- Basic arithmetic operations: `+`, `-`, `*`, `/`, `%`
- Parentheses for expression grouping
- Common mathematical functions: `sin`, `cos`, `atan`, `cosh`, `pow`, `sqrt`, `hypot`, `exp`, `ln`, `div_euclid`, `floor` etc...
- Support for variables, operators, and functions.
- Minimal dependencies.
- Provides a simple and easy-to-use API.
## Usage
Add the `lieval` crate to your `Cargo.toml` file:
```toml
[dependencies]
lieval = "<version>"
```
Then, in your Rust code:
```rust
use lieval::*;
assert_eq!(eval_from_str("1.0 + 2 * (3 - 1)"), Ok(vec![5.0]));
assert_eq!(
eval_from_str("1.0 - sin(3.14 / 2) * powf(1.5, 2.5)"),
Ok(vec![1.0 - (3.14f64 / 2.0).sin() * 1.5.powf(2.5)])
);
let mut expr = Expr::new("sqrt(4)").unwrap();
assert_eq!(expr.eval(), Ok(vec![2.0]));
```
You can assign numerical values to variables and evaluate them using `Context`.
```rust
use lieval::*;
let mut context = Context::new();
assert_eq!(
eval_from_str_with_context("1 / x", context.set_value("x", 2.0)),
Ok(vec![0.5])
);
let mut expr = Expr::new("sqrt(2+x)").unwrap();
assert_eq!(expr.set_var("x", 2.0).eval(), Ok(vec![2.0]));
let mut expr = Expr::new("sqrt(2+x+y)").unwrap();
assert_eq!(expr.set_var("x", 2.0).set_var("y", 5.0).eval(), Ok(vec![3.0]));
```
You can use custom functions.
```rust
use lieval::*;
let mut context = Context::new();
assert_eq!(
eval_from_str_with_context("1 + func(2,3)", context.set_func("func", 2, |x| x[0] + x[1])),
Ok(vec![6.0])
);
assert_eq!(
eval_from_str_with_context("1 + func(x)", context.set_func("func", 1, |x| x[0] * 2.0).set_value("x", 1.0)),
Ok(vec![3.0])
);
```
You can evaluate multiple expressions separated by commas.
```rust
use lieval::*;
assert_eq!(
eval_from_str("1 + 2, sin(3 + 0.14), 7 % 3"),
Ok(vec![3.0, (3.14f64).sin(), 7.0 % 3.0])
);
```
You can efficiently evaluate by precomputing using `partial_eval`.
```rust
use lieval::*;
let mut expr = Expr::new("a1 + a2 * sin(x)").unwrap();
expr.set_var("a1", 1.0)
.set_var("a2", 0.5)
.partial_eval()
.unwrap();
let mut x = 1.0;
for _ in 0..10 {
x = expr.set_var("x", x).eval().unwrap()[0];
assert_eq!(expr.set_var("x", x).eval(), Ok(vec![1.0 + 0.5 * x.sin()]));
}
```
