Minimalist CLI for math & cryptography exploration 🦊

FoxMath 🦊

Minimalist CLI for math & cryptography exploration.

One binary. Clean output. Zero footguns. Educational by design.

Built with curiosity — for students, tinkerers, and crypto/math enthusiasts.

Features

• Legendre symbol
• Euler/Hermann Machin-like π approximation
• Elliptic curve point addition (over finite fields), including named curves (secp256k1) with on-curve result validation
• Chinese Remainder Theorem solver (handles non-coprime moduli)
• Continued fraction expansion and convergents
• Symlink-friendly (foxmath-legendre, foxmath-pi, foxmath-ecadd, foxmath-crt, foxmath-cf)
• JSON output mode
• Coming soon: challenge mode

Installation

pip install foxmath

Or from source:

git clone https://github.com/Abhrankan-Chakrabarti/foxmath.git
cd foxmath
pip install -e .

Usage Examples

foxmath pi --terms 200

π ≈ 3.1415926535897932384626433832795028841971693993752  (200 terms)

foxmath legendre 5 17

Legendre (5/17) = -1

# Symlinks (optional)
foxmath-ecadd --x1 1 --y1 2 --x2 3 --y2 4 --p 17

Result point: (14, 2)

# Named curve (secp256k1) — computes 2G by default
foxmath ecadd --curve secp256k1

Result point: (89565891926547004231252920425935692360644145829622209833684329913297188986597, 12158399299693830322967808612713398636155367887041628176798871954788371653930)
  ✓ on curve

# Chinese Remainder Theorem
foxmath crt --r 2 3 2 --m 3 5 7

x ≡ 23 (mod 105)

# Continued fraction expansion + convergents
foxmath cf --num 355 --den 113

[3; 7, 16]
  3/1
  22/7
  355/113

Why FoxMath?

Because math and cryptography are more fun when you can play with them instantly in the terminal — with the same reliability as FoxPipe and fox-vault.

Simple. Practical. Reliable.
