  • Minimize parenthesis when printing expressions
  • list and delete variables
  • sin() with units (rad and deg)
  • Prettyprint: no space when implicit multiply?
  • Fix printing 1/2pi, square root parenthesis
  • Re-evaluate variables (a = q + 2, q = 3, a should evaluate to 5)

Pre-release

  • Commands to list constants, units, and substitutions
  • Documentation (usage)
  • Documentation (comments)
  • Print with highlighting
  • Cleanup tests
    • Test commands
    • Test functions (nounit, tobase)
  • Update README
    • demo
    • tricks (a = 2)

Parser rework

  • Better error when sin = 2
  • Define functions (f(x) = ??)
  • Should functions be operators?

General

  • Optional config file
  • Optional history file

  • CLI Options: evaluate, disable replacement, disable special characters
  • Trigonometry & function tests
  • Auto-push to crates.io

Internals

  • Non-recursive treeify
  • Faster factorial function. Maybe use gamma instead?

  • CAS features (trig, roots and powers)
  • Complex numbers
  • acot/acoth functions
  • Binary, hex, octal numbers
  • Extra roots? (for convenience)

  • Constant info command

Prompt

  • Live syntax/output (like firefox js terminal)
  • Syntax highlight input and output
  • fish-style tab completion
  • Numbered expressions, history recall

  • Exact radians, using pi constant?
  • Weird units: flops, lumen, lux, bel
  • Plural unit names
