JSPM – mathsteps@0.1.2

Package Exports

mathsteps

This package does not declare an exports field, so the exports above have been automatically detected and optimized by JSPM instead. If any package subpath is missing, it is recommended to post an issue to the original package (mathsteps) to support the "exports" field. If that is not possible, create a JSPM override to customize the exports field for this package.

NOTE: not ready for contributers

Be aware that this repo's file structure will be going through some changes to get ready for our release mid-January. At that point, we'll be publishing a blog post where you can learn more about how this repo works, and we'll be welcoming contributers! You're welcome to play around with this before then, but we won't be taking pull requests until after our release. Thanks!

Usage

To install mathsteps using npm:

npm install mathsteps

const mathsteps = require('mathsteps');

const steps = mathsteps.simplifyExpression('2x + 2x + x + x');

steps.forEach(step => {
    console.log("before change: " + step.oldNode);         // before change: 2 x + 2 x + x + x
    console.log("change: " + step.changeType);             // change: ADD_POLYNOMIAL_TERMS
    console.log("after change: " + step.newNode);          // after change: 6 x
    console.log("# of substeps: " + step.substeps.length); // # of substeps: 3
});

To solve an equation:

const steps = mathsteps.solveEquation('2x + 2x + x + x');

To see all the change types:

const changes = mathsteps.ChangeTypes;
