mathy¶
Solve math problems. Show your work. Contribute new solution types.
pip install mathy mathy simplify "2x + 1y^3 + 7b + 4x"
Features¶
- Computer Algebra System: Parse text into expression trees for manipulation and evaluation. Transform trees with user-defined rules that do not change the value of the expression.
- Learning Environments Use built-in environments or author your own. Provide custom logic and values for custom actions, problems, timestep rewards, episode rewards, and win conditions.
- Visualize Expressions: Gain a deeper understanding of problem structures and rule transformations by visualizing binary trees in a compact layout with no branch overlaps.
- Free and Open Source: Mathy is free because educational tools are important and should be accessible to everyone.
- Python with Type Hints: typing hints are used everywhere in Mathy to help provide rich autocompletion and linting in modern IDEs.
Requirements¶
- Python 3.6+
Installation¶
$ pip install mathy
Try It¶
Let's start by simplifying a polynomial problem using the CLI:
Simplify a Polynomial¶
$ mathy simplify "2x + 4 + 3x * 6"
Mathy uses a swam planning algorithm to determine which intermediate steps to take to achieve the desired solution.
The output will vary, but it might look like this:
mathy simplify "2x + 4 + 3x * 6"
Generate Input Problems¶
Mathy can generate lists of randomized problems. Rather than forcing users to create solutions, Mathy uses environment-specific functions to determine when a problem is solved. In this way, users don't need to know the answer to a question they generate.
$ mathy problems poly
