# Core

|
|
|

|
|
## Usage
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
The core of math.js is the `math` namespace containing all functions and constants. There are three ways to do calculations in math.js:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- Doing regular function calls like `math.add(math.sqrt(4), 2)`.
|
||
|
|
- Evaluating expressions like `math.evaluate('sqrt(4) + 2')`
|
||
|
|
- Chaining operations like `math.chain(4).sqrt().add(2)`.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Configuration
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
math.js can be configured using the `math.config()`, see page [Configuration](configuration.md).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Extension
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
math.js can be extended with new functions and constants using the function `math.import()`, see page [Extension](extension.md).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
## Serialization
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
To persist or exchange data structures like matrices and units, the data types of math.js can be stringified as JSON. This is explained on the page [Serialization](serialization.md).
