MathViews Parsing Engine - Specifications

Language:

• Supports real/complex vector and matrix data types.
  Syntax is designed for the intuitive expression of mathematical operations
  

  Matrix & array operators	+	-	*	/	\	^	'
  logical operators	<	<=	>=	==	~=	&	|	~

• Elementary math functions:
  

  abs	sqrt	real	imag
  sign	sin	cos	tan
  asin	acos	atan	sinh
  cosh	tanh

• Elementary statistics: max, min, mean, std, median, rand
  Time-Series analysis and filtering:
  

  fft	ifft
  fft2	ifft2
  conv	filter
  remez	freqz

• Matrix decomposition and conditioning:

  eig	inv	lu
  qr	pinv	svd
  chol	balance	cond
  det	norm

• Polynomial: poly, roots, conv, polyfit
• Flow control:
  • if .. elseif .. else .. end
  • for .. end
  • while .. end
  • break, return, pause
• User-defined functions
• Debugging support
• Interpreted, so code-debug cycle is very rapid
• Matlab 3.5 compatibility
• automatic re-assignment
• Soon: n-dimension numeric arrays, n-dimension heterogeneous lists, and structures.

Architecture:

• easily embeddable into other software through Invocation API
• supports command extensions via dynamic linking and Extension API
• multiple parser instances can run in the same address space, each one in a separate thread.
• easily portable to multiple operating systems
• Object oriented - written in C++ from the ground up
