algebra VS mathjs

Is ark a prefix Embark is using for all their Rust crates, or is it a one-off name for your future crate? If so, it might collide with our naming convention in the arkworks ecosystem: arkworks.rs

It's because it's not supported out of the box by the mathjs library I'm using: https://mathjs.org/

I agree that this would be nice.

Ha, yes, I was being nosy. It was quite easy to spot as it's the only XHR/Fetch request.

I was intrigued what you had used to build it, and if you had built your own solver (which you have), and what editor you used (Code Mirror) so went looking at the code. Interesting to see you left the source maps for production, made it easy for my sleuthing...

I experimented with a similar idea last year, but used ProseMirror/TipTap as the editor to enable rich text editing, and the MathJS (https://mathjs.org) solver. I also combined it with PouchDB and Yjs for offline editing and syncing between devices. Never finished it though, you have kept your nice and simple!

This is nice but I believe something much better can be achieved using JavaScript, in particular math.js.

I also found this math input library: http://mathquill.com/ , and https://mathjs.org/ seems to contain code for solving math problems.

What about math.js? It has an expression parser that looks pretty nice.

Use Math.js lib https://mathjs.org/

⚠️ You should not use eval in user facing applications, because it can be abused and external code can be run with it. More details If you want to replace eval I suggest using Math.js lib.

To understand the algorithm, I first implemented linear regression from scratch for a linear trendline, including a test suite because I wanted to catch coding errors early on. This worked very well already, but I moved on to a quadratic trendline to also account for controller acceleration. For this, I used the mathjs library to make life easier.

29. MathJS

You can add other npm modules using this same process to make your life a little easier when writing custom functions and is much easier than developing a custom module. Some potentially handy modules might be: date-fns, mathjs, cheerio, execa.
