Jep Extensions


Console application

This console application illustrates features of the Jep Extensions package.

Field:

This example has been cross compiled to javascript using the GWTJep package.

Field selection

This console can perform calculations using various different fields including integers, fractions, decimals with a specific number of decimal places. Use

  • setfield double for standard floating point numbers
  • setfield bigdec 30 for big decimal numbers with 30 decimal places
  • setfield bigdec unlimited for big decimal numbers with unlimited size
  • setfield integer all calculations in integer
  • setfield exactint all calculations in integers throwing exceptions on overflow
  • setfield bigint all calculations using unlimited precision BigIntegers
  • setfield rational for fractions (rational numbers unlimited precision)
  • setfield complex all calculations using complex numbers
  • setfield simple closest match to standard jep operation
  • setfield mixed 30 combines rational numbers and bigdecimal number with 30 dp
Notes:
  • Changing the field resets all variables.
  • Different fields have different sets of functions and constants defiend
  • The JavaScript versions may not always give the same results as the Java version as JavaScript has different ways of representing numbers.

Structured programming

The console allows simple structured programming constructs like loops and if statments. It supports

    for(i=1;i<10;++i) { ... }
    while(i<10) { ... }  while loops
    break;   (inside a loop)
    continue;   (inside a loop)
    if(i<10) { ... } else { ... }
    statement; statement
    { statement; statement }
    print(a,b,c)
    println(a,b,c)

Examples

A simple loop can add the numbers from 1 to 10

sum=0; for(i=1; i<=10; ++i) { sum += i; } 

Symbolic operations

  • diff(x^2,x) differentiate x^2 with respect to x
  • rules prints the set of differentiation rules used
  • clean(0+1*x) cleans a expression
  • simplify(2x+3x) simplifies a expression using the polynomial simplification algorithm
  • expand((x+1)*(x-1)) expands a polynomial'
  • compare((x+1)^2, x^2+2x+1) compares without expansion
  • coeffs(x^2+2x+1,x) extract coefficients as an array
  • subst(x*y*z,y=x+1,z=x-1) substitution rhs equations into the lhs expression
Symbolic assignment
  • f := x^2 set f to have and equation from the rhs
  • eqn(f) extract equation from a symbolic variable
  • verbose on/verbose off switch verbose mode on or off

Matrix operations

  • m = [[1,2],[3,4]] - creation of matrix
  • u = [5,6] - creation of vector
  • m[1][2] - find the 2nd element in the 1st column
  • det(m) - the determinate of a matrix
  • trace(m) - the trace of a matrix
  • trans(m) - transpose of a matrix
  • id(3) - creates a 3x3 identity matrix
  • zeroMat(3,2) - creates a 3 by matrix of zeros
  • zeroVec(3) - creates a vector of zeros length 3
  • size(m) - finds the length of a vector or size of a matrix
  • inv(m) - find the inverse of m
  • v=solve(m,u) - find solution of m * v = u

Statistical functions

  • count(v) - count the number of elements
  • min(v) - finds the min value in a vector or matrix
  • max(v) - finds the max value in a vector or matrix
  • sum(v) - finds the sum of the elements
  • product(v) - finds the product of the elements
  • mean(v) - finds the mean value in a vector or matrix
  • var(v) - finds the variance of the values
  • sd(v) - finds the standard deviation of the values
  • median(v) - finds the mean value in a vector or matrix
  • ranks(d,data) - finds the rank of element d in data array
  • ranks(v) - finds the ranks all the elements
  • mode(v) - finds the mode of the values
