math/aamath 0.3nb2 NetBSD

aamath is a program that reads mathematical expressions in infix notation and renders them as ASCII art. It may be useful to send mathematics through text-only media, such as e-mail or newsgroups.

As a simple example, the output for an expression such as

 	    A\_OPR = x\*sqrt(x^2-1)/2 - int(sqrt(t^2-1), t = 1 .. x)

will look like

                    x
        \_\_\_\_\_\_     /
       / 2        \|    \_\_\_\_\_\_
   x \\/ x  - 1    \|   / 2

A = ----------- - | \/ t - 1 dt OPR 2 | | / 1

Other than the usual operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and exponentiation), aamath can also handle functions, integrals, limits, sums, products, matrices and vectors.
