```js

|
var parser = new math.parser();
|
|
|
|
// evaluate expressions
|
|
var a = parser.eval('sqrt(3^2 + 4^2)'); // 5
|
|
var b = parser.eval('sqrt(-4)'); // 2i
|
|
var c = parser.eval('2 inch in cm'); // 5.08 cm
|
|
var d = 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!"
