Automatically loading either commonjs code or ES modules code is improved.
All generated code is moved under
/lib: the browser bundle is moved from/distto/lib/browser, ES module files are moved to/lib/esm, and commonjs files are moved to/lib/cjs. Thanks @GreenImp. - Non-minified bundle
dist/math.jsis no longer provided. Either use the minified bundle, or create a bundle yourself. - Replaced random library
seed-randomwithseedrandom, see #1955. Thanks @poppinlp. - Breaking changes in
pickRandom, see #1990, #1976.-
Will no longer return the input matrix when the given number is greater than the length of the provided possibles. Instead, the function always returns results with the requested number of picks.
-
Will now return a
Matrixas output when input was aMatrix. -
Introduced a new syntax:
math.pickRandom(array, { weights, number, elementWise }) -
Introduced a new option
elementWise, which istrueby default. When settingelementWiseto false, an array containing arrays will return random pick of arrays instead of the elements inside of the nested arrays.

import * as math from 'mathjs'Use a few functions:
import { add, multiply } from 'mathjs'Load all functions with custom configuration:
import { create, all } from 'mathjs' const config = { number: 'BigNumber' } const math = create(all, config)Load a few functions with custom configuration:

-
Functions
configandimportare not available anymore in the global context:// v5 import * as mathjs from 'mathjs' mathjs.config(...) // error in v6.0.0 mathjs.import(...) // error in v6.0.0Instead, create your own mathjs instance and pass config and imports there:
// v6 import { create, all } from 'mathjs' const config = { number: 'BigNumber' } const mathjs = create(all, config) mathjs.import(...) -
Renamed function
typeoftotypeOf,vartovariance, andevaltoevaluate. (the old function names are reserved keywords which can not be used as a variable name). -
Deprecated the
Matrix.storagefunction. Usemath.matrixinstead to create a matrix. -
Deprecated function
math.expression.parse, usemath.parseinstead. Was used before for example to customize supported characters by replacingmath.parse.isAlpha. -
Moved all classes like
math.type.Unitandmath.expression.Parsertomath.Unitandmath.Parserrespectively. -

erf. -
Removed all index.js files used to load specific functions instead of all, like:
// v5 // ... set up empty instance of mathjs, then load a set of functions: math.import(require('mathjs/lib/function/arithmetic'))Individual functions are now loaded simply like:
// v6 import { add, multiply } from 'mathjs'To set a specific configuration on the functions:
// v6 import { create, addDependencies, multiplyDependencies } from 'mathjs' const config = { number: 'BigNumber' } const math = create({ addDependencies, multiplyDependencies }, config)See example

2018-02-25, version 4.0.0
!!! BE CAREFUL: BREAKING CHANGES !!!
Breaking changes (see also #682):
-
New expression compiler
The compiler of the expression parser is replaced with one that doesn't use
evalinternally. See #1019. This means:- a slightly improved performance on most browsers.
- less risk of security exploits.
- the code of the new compiler is easier to understand, maintain, and debug.
Breaking change here: When using custom nodes in the expression parser, the syntax of
_compilehas changed. This is an undocumented feature though. -
Parsed expressions
-
The class
ConstantNodeis changed such that it just holds a value instead of holding a stringified value and it's type.ConstantNode(valueStr, valueType) is nowConstantNode(value)Stringification usesmath.format, which may result in differently formatted numeric output. -
The constants
true,false,null,undefined,NaN,Infinity, anduninitializedare now parsed as ConstantNodes instead of SymbolNodes in the expression parser. See #833.
-
-
Implicit multiplication
-
Changed the behavior of implicit multiplication to have higher precedence than explicit multiplication and division, except in a number of specific cases. This gives a more natural behavior for implicit multiplications. For example
24h / 6hnow returns4, whilst1/2 kgevaluates to0.5 kg. Thanks @ericman314. See: #792. Detailed documentation: https://github.com/josdejong/mathjs/blob/v4/docs/expressions/syntax.md#implicit-multiplication. -
Immediately invoking a function returned by a function like
partialAdd(2)(3)is no longer supported, instead these expressions are evaluated as an implicit multiplicationpartialAdd(2) * (3). See #1035.
-
-
String formatting
-
In function
math.format, the options{exponential: {lower: number, upper: number}}(wherelowerandupperare values) are replaced with{lowerExp: number, upperExp: number}(wherelowerExpandupperExpare exponents). See #676. For example:math.format(2000, {exponential: {lower: 1e-2, upper: 1e2}})is now:
math.format(2000, {lowerExp: -2, upperExp: 2}) -
In function
math.format, the optionnotation: 'fixed'no longer rounds to zero digits when no precision is specified: it leaves the digits as is. See #676.
-
-
String comparison
Changed the behavior of relational functions (
compare,equal,equalScalar,larger,largerEq,smaller,smallerEq,unequal) to compare strings by their numeric value they contain instead of alphabetically. This also impacts functionsdeepEqual,sort,min,max,median, andpartitionSelect. UsecompareNaturalif you need to sort an array with text. See #680. -
Angle units
Changed
rad,deg, andgradto have short prefixes, and introducedradian,degree, andgradianand their plurals having long prefixes. See #749. -
Null
-
nullis no longer implicitly casted to a number0, so input likemath.add(2, null)is no longer supported. See #830, #353. -
Dropped constant
uninitialized, which was used to initialize leave new entries undefined when resizing a matrix is removed. Useundefinedinstead to indicate entries that are not explicitly set. See #833.
-
-
New typed-function library
- The
typed-functionlibrary used to check the input types of functions is completely rewritten and doesn't useevalunder the hood anymore. This means a reduced security risk, and easier to debug code. The API is the same, but error messages may differ a bit. Performance is comparable but may differ in specific use cases and browsers.
- The
Non breaking changes:
- Thanks to the new expression compiler and
typed-functionimplementation, mathjs doesn't use JavaScript'sevalanymore under the hood. This allows using mathjs in environments with security restrictions. See #401. - Implemented additional methods
isUnary()andisBinary()onOperatorNode. See #1025. - Improved error messages for statistical functions.
- Upgraded devDependencies.
- Fixed #1014:
derivativesilently dropping additional arguments from operator nodes with more than two arguments.

breaking changes
-
More restricted support for implicit multiplication in the expression parser:
(...)(...)is now evaluated as a function invocation, and[...][...]as a matrix subset. -
Matrix multiplication no longer squeezes scalar outputs to a scalar value, but leaves them as they are: a vector or matrix containing a single value. See #529.
-
Assignments in the expression parser now return the assigned value rather than the created or updated object (see #533). Example:
A = eye(3) A[1,1] = 2 # this assignment now returns 2 instead of A -
Expression parser now supports objects. This involves a refactoring and extension in expression nodes:
- Implemented new node
ObjectNode. - Refactored
AssignmentNode,UpdateNode, andIndexNodeare refactored intoAccessorNode,AssignmentNode, andIndexNodehaving a different API.
- Implemented new node
-
Upgraded the used BigNumber library
decimal.jsto v5. Replaced the trigonometric functions of math.js with those provided in decimal.js v5. This can give slightly different behavior qua round-off errors. -
Replaced the internal
Complex.jsclass with thecomplex.jslibrary created by @infusion. -
Entries in a matrix (typically numbers, BigNumbers, Units, etc) are now considered immutable, they are no longer copied when performing operations on the entries, improving performance.

Implemented nearly equal comparison for relational functions (
equal,larger,smaller, etc.) when using BigNumbers. -
Changed the casing of the configuration options
matrix(ArrayorMatrix) andnumber(number,BigNumber,Fraction) such that they now match the type returned bymath.typeof. Wrong casing gives a console warning but will still work. -
Changed the default config value for
epsilonfrom1e-14to1e-12, see #561.
non-breaking changes

squeezenot being able squeeze into a scalar. - Some fixes and performance improvements in the
resizeandsubsetfunctions. - Function
sizenow adheres to the optionmatrix.defaultTypefor scalar input. - Minor bug fixes.
2013-10-26, version 0.15.0
- Math.js must be instantiated now, static calls are no longer supported. Usage:
- node.js:
var math = require('mathjs')(); - browser:
var math = mathjs();
- node.js:
- Implemented support for multiplying vectors with matrices.
- Improved number formatting:
- Function
formatnow support various options: precision, different notations (fixed,scientific,auto), and more. - Numbers are no longer rounded to 5 digits by default when formatted.
- Implemented a function
formatforMatrix,Complex,Unit,Range, andSelectorto format using options. - Function
formatdoes only stringify values now, and has a new parameterprecisionto round to a specific number of digits. - Removed option
math.options.precision, usemath.format(value [, precision])instead. - Fixed formatting numbers as scientific notation in some cases returning a zero digit left from the decimal point. (like "0.33333e8" rather than "3.3333e7"). Thanks @husayt.
- Function
- Implemented a function
printto interpolate values in a template string, this functionality was moved from the functionformat. - Implemented statistics function
mean. Thanks Guillermo Indalecio Fernandez (@guillermobox). - Extended and changed
maxandminfor multi dimensional matrices: they now return the maximum and minimum of the flattened array. An optional second argumentdimallows to calculate themaxorminfor specified dimension. - Renamed option
math.options.matrix.defaulttomath.options.matrix.defaultType. - Removed support for comparing complex numbers in functions
smaller,smallereq,larger,largereq. Complex numbers cannot be ordered.
2013-10-08, version 0.14.0
- Introduced an option
math.options.matrix.defaultwhich can have valuesmatrix(default) orarray. This option is used by the functionseye,ones,range, andzeros, to determine the type of matrix output. - Getting a subset of a matrix will automatically squeeze the resulting subset, setting a subset of a matrix will automatically unsqueeze the given subset.
- Removed concatenation of nested arrays in the expression parser.
You can now input nested arrays like in JavaScript. Matrices can be
concatenated using the function
concat. - The matrix syntax
[...]in the expression parser now creates 1 dimensional matrices by default.math.eval('[1,2,3,4]')returns a matrix with size[4],math.eval('[1,2;3,4]')returns a matrix with size[2,2]. - Documentation is restructured and extended.
- Fixed non working operator
mod(modulus operator).
2013-09-03, version 0.13.0
- Implemented support for booleans in all relevant functions.
- Implemented functions
mapandforEach. Thanks Sebastien Piquemal (@sebpic). - All construction functions can be used to convert the type of variables, also element-wise for all elements in an Array or Matrix.
- Changed matrix indexes of the expression parser to one-based with the upper-bound included, similar to most math applications. Note that on a JavaScript level, math.js uses zero-based indexes with excluded upper-bound.
- Removed support for scalars in the function
subset, it now only supports Array, Matrix, and String. - Removed the functions
getandsetfrom a selector, they are a duplicate of the functionsubset. - Replaced functions
getandsetofMatrixwith a single functionsubset. - Some moving around with code and namespaces:
- Renamed namespace
math.exprtomath.expression(contains Scope, Parser, node objects). - Renamed namespace
math.docstomath.expression.docs. - Moved
math.expr.Selectortomath.chaining.Selector.
- Renamed namespace
- Fixed some edge cases in functions
lcmandxgcd.

distribution(name), generating a distribution object with functionsrandom,randomInt,pickRandomfor different distributions. Currently supportinguniformandnormal. - Changed the behavior of
rangeto exclude the upper bound, sorange(1, 4)now returns[1, 2, 3]instead of[1, 2, 3, 4]. - Changed the syntax of
range, which is nowrange(start, end [, step])instead ofrange(start, [step, ] end). - Changed the behavior of
onesandzerosto geometric dimensions, for exampleones(3)returns a vector with length 3, filled with ones, andones(3,3)returns a 2D array with size [3, 3]. - Changed the return type of
onesandzeros: they now return an Array when arguments are Numbers or an Array, and returns a Matrix when the argument is a Matrix. - Change matrix index notation in parser from round brackets to square brackets,
for example
A[0, 0:3]. - Removed the feature introduced in v0.10.0 to automatically convert a complex value with an imaginary part equal to zero to a number.

2013-04-20, version 0.7.0
- Implemented method
math.eval, which uses a readonly parser to evaluate expressions. - Implemented method
xgcd(extended eucledian algorithm). Thanks Bart Kiers (@bkiers). - Improved math.format, which now rounds values to a maximum number of digits

math.select(3).add(4).subtract(2).done()will return5. - Implemented methods gcd and lcm.
- Implemented method
Unit.in(unit), which creates a clone of the unit with a fixed representation. For examplemath.unit('5.08 cm').in('inch')will return a unit which string representation always is in inch, thus2 inch.Unit.in(unit)is the same as methodmath.in(x, unit). - Implemented
Unit.toNumber(unit), which returns the value of the unit when represented with given unit. For examplemath.unit('5.08 cm').toNumber('inch')returns the number2, as the representation of the unit in inches has 2 as value. - Improved: method

- Implemented matrix methods clone, concat, det, diag, eye, inv, ones, size, squeeze, transpose, zeros.
- Implemented range operator
:, and transpose operator'in parser. - Changed: created construction methods for easy object creation for all data
types and for the parser. For example, a complex value is now created
with
math.complex(2, 3)instead ofnew math.Complex(2, 3), and a parser is now created withmath.parser()instead ofnew math.parser.Parser(). - Changed: moved all data types under the namespace math.type, and moved the Parser, Workspace, etc. under the namespace math.expr.
- Changed: changed operator precedence of the power operator:
- it is now right associative instead of left associative like most scripting
languages. So
2^3^4is now calculated as2^(3^4). - it has now higher precedence than unary minus most languages, thus
-3^2is now calculated as-(3^2).
- it is now right associative instead of left associative like most scripting
languages. So
- Changed: renamed the parsers method 'put' into 'set'.
