pylytic Library

Description

pylytic is a lightweight and flexible Python library designed to facilitate evaluating mathematical expressions and performing calculations efficiently, the pylytic library is focused on the implementation of math methods and evaluation of complex arithemetic expressions. It leverages mathematical algorithms such as CORDIC, INV_CORDIC and Newton-Raphson methods to perform computations. This library is ideal for developers, researchers, and enthusiasts seeking optimized solutions for mathematical operations.

Library Structure

• pylytic

  • evaluation

    • eval.py

  • math_methods

    • m_eval.py

  • storage.py

  • extras.py

eval.py Evaluates mathematical expressions

m_eval.py Contains mathematical functions

storage.py Stores Constants required for eval and m_eval

extras.py Includes decorator used to validate types passed as arguments to functions

Installation

To install pylytic, simply use pip:

pip install pylytic

Or install directly from this repository

pip install git+https://github.com/AdelekeAdedeji/pylytic.git

eval.py

eval is a module in the pylytic library used to evaluate mathematical expressions.

Feature

• Mathematical expression evaluation: Accurate evaluation of mathematical expressions

Usage

Here is a quick example to get started:

from pylytic import eval

expr_result = eval.eval_complex(expr="1.725 * cosech(log(0.784 + atan(0.459)) + 4P(2)C(7) / 3!) + cot(40) * asec(9.5 * 7 - 5) - -(sinh(1.5) + 2 ^ ln(0.75))",
                         mode="deg", logarithmic_base=10)
print(expr_result)

expr: represents the expression to be evaluated, expression is strictly of type str

mode: represents the mode in which the expression is to be evaluated, defaults to deg (as in degrees), also supports rad (radians) and grad (gradians)

logarithmic_base: the base in which the expression is to be evaluated, defaults to base 10

m_eval.py

m_eval is a module in the pylytic library which contains mathematical functions

Features

• Trigonometric Evaluations: Efficient computation of sine, cosine, tangent, and their inverses using the CORDIC algorithm.
• Square Root Calculation: High-precision square root evaluation leveraging the Newton-Raphson method.
• Robust Error Handling: Gracefully handles invalid inputs and computational errors.

Usage

Here's a quick example to get started:

Computing Trigonometric Functions

from pylytic import m_eval

result = m_eval.sin(angle=45, mode="rad")
print("Result: ", result)

Computing Hyperbolic Functions

from pylytic import m_eval

result = m_eval.cosech(1.715)
print("Result:", result)

Computing Logarithmic functions

from pylytic import m_eval

logarithm = m_eval.log(x=0.857, base=2.7182818285)
natural_log = m_eval.ln(value=75.5)
print(logarithm, natural_log)

List of functions supported by m_eval

sin, cos, tan, sec, cosec, cot, asin, acos, atan, asec, acosec, acot, sinh, cosh, tanh, sech, cosech, coth, asinh, acosh, atanh, acosech, asech, acoth, log, ln, log10, power, factorial, perm, comb, abs

a: represents arc

perm represents permutation, the format for writing permutation is 5P(2) not 5P2

comb represents combination, the format for writing combination is 5C(2) not 5C2

Explanation of Core Algorithms

CORDIC Algorithm

The CORDIC (Coordinate Rotation Digital Computer) algorithm is a method used for calculating trigonometric functions, hyperbolic functions, and square roots. It operates through iterative rotations to converge on the desired result efficiently.

INV_CORDIC Algorithm

An inverse version of the CORDIC algorithm used for calculating inverse trigonometric functions like arcsine, arccosine....

Newton-Raphson Method

A root-finding algorithm used here for high-precision computation of square roots and more. The method iteratively refines an initial guess to converge on an accurate result.
