- Fix #2632: TypeScript issue of
simplifyConstant
andsimplifyCore
not having a return type defined.
!!! BE CAREFUL: BREAKING CHANGES !!!
Breaking changes:
- Dropped official support for IE11.
- Upgraded to
typed-function@3
, see josdejong/typed-function/HISTORY.md. Thanks @gwhitney. Most importantly:- Conversions now have preference over
any
. - The
this
variable is no longer bound to the typed function itself. - The properties
typed.types
,typed.conversions
, andtyped.ignore
have been removed. - There are new static functions available like
typed.referTo
,typed.referToSelf
,typed.addTypes
,typed.addConversions
.
- Conversions now have preference over
- Implement amended "Rule 2" for implicit multiplication (#2370, #2460):
when having a division followed by an implicit multiplication, the division
gets higher precedence over the implicit multiplication when (a) the
numerator is a constant with optionally a prefix operator (
-
,+
,~
), and (b) the denominator is a constant. For example: formerly-1 / 2 x
was interpreted as-1 / (2 * x)
and now it is interpreted as(-1 / 2) * x
. Thanks @gwhitney. - Drop elementwise matrix support for trigonometric functions, exp, log, gamma,
square, sqrt, cube, and cbrt to prevent confusion with standard matrix
functions (#2440, #2465). Instead, use
math.map(matrix, fn)
. Thanks @gwhitney. - Simplify: convert equivalent function calls into operators, for example,
add(2, x)
will now be simplified into2 + x
(#2415, #2466). Thanks @gwhitney. - Removed the automatic conversion from
number
tostring
(#2482). Thanks @gwhitney. - Fix #2412: let function
diff
return an empty matrix when the input contains only one element (#2422). - Internal refactoring in the
simplifyCore
logic (#2490, #2484, #2459). The functionsimplifyCore
will no longer (partially) merge constants, that behavior has been moved tosimplifyConstant
. The combination ofsimplifyConstant
andsimplifyCore
is still close to the old behavior ofsimplifyCore
, but there are some differences. To reproduce the same behavior as the oldsimplifyCore
, you can usemath.simplify(expr, [math.simplifyCore, math.simplifyConstant])
. Thanks to the refactoring,simplify
is more thorough in reducing constants. Thanks @gwhitney. - Disable support for splitting rest parameters in chained calculations
(#2485, #2474). For example:
math.chain(3).max(4, 2).done()
will now throw an error rather than return4
, because the rest parameter ofmath.max(...number)
has been split between the contents of the chain and the arguments to the max call. Thanks @gwhitney. - Function
typeOf
now returnsfunction
(lowercase) for a function instead ofFunction
(#2560). Thanks @gwhitney.

!!! BE CAREFUL: BREAKING CHANGES !!!
-
Full support for ES modules. Support for tree-shaking out of the box.
Load all functions:
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:
import { create, addDependencies, multiplyDependencies } from 'mathjs' const config = { number: 'BigNumber' } const { add, multiply } = create({ addDependencies, multiplyDependencies }, config)
-
Support for lightweight, number-only implementations of all functions:
import { add, multiply } from 'mathjs/number'
-
New dependency injection solution used under the hood.
-
Node 6 is no longer supported.
-
Functions
config
andimport
are not available anymore in the global context:// v5 import * as mathjs from 'mathjs' mathjs.config(...) // error in v6.0.0 mathjs.import(...) // error in v6.0.0
Instead, 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
typeof
totypeOf
,var
tovariance
, andeval
toevaluate
. (the old function names are reserved keywords which can not be used as a variable name). -
Deprecated the
Matrix.storage
function. Usemath.matrix
instead to create a matrix. -
Deprecated function
math.expression.parse
, usemath.parse
instead. Was used before for example to customize supported characters by replacingmath.parse.isAlpha
. -
Moved all classes like
math.type.Unit
andmath.expression.Parser
tomath.Unit
andmath.Parser
respectively. -
Fixed #1428: transform iterating over replaced nodes. New behavior is that it stops iterating when a node is replaced.
-
Dropped support for renaming factory functions when importing them.
-
Dropped fake BigNumber support of function
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)

!!! 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
eval
internally. 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
_compile
has changed. This is an undocumented feature though.
-
-
Parsed expressions
-
The class
ConstantNode
is 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
, anduninitialized
are 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 / 6h
now returns4
, whilst1/2 kg
evaluates 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}}
(wherelower
andupper
are values) are replaced with{lowerExp: number, upperExp: number}
(wherelowerExp
andupperExp
are 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
. UsecompareNatural
if you need to sort an array with text. See #680. -
Angle units
Changed
rad
,deg
, andgrad
to have short prefixes, and introducedradian
,degree
, andgradian
and their plurals having long prefixes. See #749. -
Null
-
null
is 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. Useundefined
instead to indicate entries that are not explicitly set. See #833.
-
-
New typed-function library
- The
typed-function
library used to check the input types of functions is completely rewritten and doesn't useeval
under 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-function
implementation, mathjs doesn't use JavaScript'seval
anymore 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:
derivative
silently dropping additional arguments from operator nodes with more than two arguments.

f(f(x, y), z)instead of
f(x, y, z)`. Thanks @joelhoover. - Fixed
simplify
throwing an error in some cases when simplifying unknown functions, for examplesimplify('f(4)')
. Thanks @joelhoover. - Fixed #1013:
simplify

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

are refactored intoAccessorNode
,AssignmentNode
, andIndexNode
having a different API.

Complex.js
class with thecomplex.js
library 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.
-

equal
,larger
,smaller
, etc.) when using BigNumbers. -
Changed the casing of the configuration options
matrix
(Array
orMatrix
) 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
epsilon
from1e-14
to1e-12
, see #561.
- Extended function
pow
to return the real root for cubic roots of negative numbers. See #525, #482, #567. - Implemented support for JSON objects in the expression parser and the

- Minor bug fixes.
- Implemented data types Matrix and Range.
- 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
2^3^4
is now calculated as2^(3^4)
. - it has now higher precedence than unary minus most languages, thus
-3^2
is 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'.
- Fixed: method 'in' did not check for units to have the same base.
- Implemented Array support for all methods.
- Implemented Array support in the Parser.
- Implemented method format.
- Implemented parser for units, math.Unit.parse(str).
- Improved parser for complex values math.Complex.parse(str);
- Improved method help: it now evaluates the examples.
- Fixed: a scoping issue with the Parser when defining functions.
- Fixed: method 'typeof' was not working well with minified and mangled code.
- Fixed: errors in determining the best prefix for a unit.
- Implemented Workspace
- Implemented methods cot, csc, sec.
- Implemented Array support for methods with one parameter.
- Parser, Scope, and expression tree with Nodes implemented.
- Implemented method import which makes it easy to extend math.js.
- Implemented methods arg, conj, cube, equal, factorial, im, largereq, log(x, base), log10, mod, re, sign, smallereq, square, unequal.
- Reached full compatibility with Javascripts built-in Math library.
- More functions implemented.
- Some bugfixes.
- All constants of Math implemented, plus the imaginary unit i.
- Data types Complex and Unit implemented.
- First set of functions implemented.
- First publish of the mathjs package. (package is still empty)
