Changelog

Version 0.7 (2018-06-18)

• Now Points, as well as other basic geometric objects, may be 2D or 3D.

• Add first three-dimensional objects: Polyhedron and RightCuboid.

• Add first flat representation of polyhedra: ObliqueProjection

• Extend units conversions to areas, volumes and conversions between capacities and volumes (from m³ to mm³).

• Add ClockTime object to easily deal with times.

• Accept floats to initialize Numbers (the float being converted to str).

Patch 0.7.1 (2018-11-16)

• Fix Number.rounded() for precisions greater than 10 (e.g. 10, 100, 1000 etc.)

• Add Number.highest_digitplace() and Number.estimation()

Version 0.6 (2018-04-12)

• A standalone Angle or AnglesSet can be drawn. Enrich Angles’ decorations (hatch marks, labeling, second decoration etc.).

• An integer Number can be split as a sum of integers ± 0.5 (or ± 0.25)

• Add Number.lowest_nonzero_digit_index()

• Patch Number.split() to get a consistent behaviour for integers too (default split will be done at lowest non zero digit place: 500 will be split as 100 + 400, or 200 + 300 etc. and with dig=1, it will be split as 10 + 490, or 20 + 480 etc.).

• Fix: Numbers with an angle’s unit should be displayed as \ang{…} rather than \SI{…}{\textdegree}.

• Add basic classes to handle LaTeX commands and options’ lists.

Patches 0.6.1 to 0.6.4 (2018-04-13, 2018-04-30, 2018-05-02 and 2018-05-05)

• Add a constant in LaTeX module

• Add Number.digits_sum()

• Add Number.digits and Number.digit()

• Add some amsmath symbols.

Version 0.5 (2018-01-10)

• Add Number.quantize().

• A Number can be converted into a another unit of the same physical quantity.

• Accept int as exponent (or even content) of an Exponented.

• Fractions can be created from a decimal Number.

• Fractions become Evaluable and can be compared to other numbers.

• Standalone Units will be printed using siunitx (e.g. as ‘\si{cm}’).

• Fix bug: current locale is ignored when printing a number having a unit.

• Do not automatically remove possible trailing zeros when printing a Number.

• Add the tonne (t) as mass unit.

• An optional patch allow Polygons to be drawn to the first vertex again instead of only cycling (default behaviour).

Version 0.4 (2017-12-19)

• Add more complex geometric objects: Polygon, Triangle, RightTriangle, EquilateralTriangle, IsoscelesTriangle, Quadrilateral, Rhombus, Rectangle, Square.

• Numbers can be “copied” using copy.copy() or copy.deepcopy().

• Add Point.rotate().

• Add the ability to change the size of Point’s drawn shape (using Point.shape_scale).

• Add LineSegment.mark and the ability to change its size (using LineSegment.mark_scale).

• mathmakerlib.requires_pkg becomes mathmakerlib.required and will also handle required options and hacks.

• Add module mathmakerlib.mmlib_setup to configure the behaviour (default values etc.).

Patch 0.4.1 (2018-01-01)

• Fix the locale monkey patch.

Version 0.3 (2017-11-17)

• Add basic geometric objects: Point, LineSegment and DividedLineSegment.

• Add Fraction.

• Add module mathmakerlib.requires_pkg that tells which LaTeX packages will be required to compile the document (like tikz, xcolor, siunitx…).

Version 0.2 (2017-11-01)

• Add Sign, Exponented and Unit classes.

• Numbers are now Signed objects and may be assigned a Unit.

Patches 0.2.1 and 0.2.2 (2017-11-02)

• Bring back Numbers’ hashability.

• Add physical_quantity() in unit module.

Initial version 0.1 (2017-10-24)

• Number class and decimal numbers’ related functions.
