/**
 * @constructor Parser
 * Parser contains methods to evaluate or parse expressions, and has a number
 * of convenience methods to get, set, and remove variables from memory. Parser
 * keeps a scope containing variables in memory, which is used for all
 * evaluations.
 *
 * Methods:
 *    var result = parser.eval(expr);    // evaluate an expression
 *    var value = parser.get(name);      // retrieve a variable from the parser
 *    parser.set(name, value);           // set a variable in the parser
 *    parser.remove(name);               // clear a variable from the
 *                                       // parsers scope
 *    parser.clear();                    // clear the parsers scope
 *
 *    // it is possible to parse an expression into a node tree:
 *    var node = parser.parse(expr);     // parse an expression into a node tree
 *    var result = node.eval();          // evaluate a parsed node
 *
 * Example usage:
 *    var parser = new Parser(math);
 *    // Note: there is a convenience method which can be used instead:
 *    // var parser = new math.parser();
 *
 *    // evaluate expressions
 *    parser.eval('sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)');         // 5
 *    parser.eval('sqrt(-4)');                // 2i
 *    parser.eval('2 inch in cm');            // 5.08 cm
 *    parser.eval('cos(45 deg)');             // 0.7071067811865476
 *
 *    // define variables and functions
 *    parser.eval('x = 7 / 2');               // 3.5
 *    parser.eval('x + 3');                   // 6.5
 *    parser.eval('function f(x, y) = x^y');  // f(x, y)
 *    parser.eval('f(2, 3)');                 // 8
 *
 *    // get and set variables and functions
 *    var x = parser.get('x');                // 7
 *    var f = parser.get('f');                // function
 *    var g = f(3, 2);                        // 9
 *    parser.set('h', 500);
 *    var i = parser.eval('h / 2');           // 250
 *    parser.set('hello', function (name) {
 *        return 'hello, ' + name + '!';
 *    });
 *    parser.eval('hello("user")');           // "hello, user!"
 *
 *    // clear defined functions and variables
 *    parser.clear();
