Exponentiation¶

Here are the exponentiation/quadratic related functions. they are unstable at the moment, but works well in expected situations.

xpnt(arg=[0])

exponentiation operation. it can do it recursively, like:

from Matematica import xpnt

x = xpnt([2, 2, 2])
print(x)

output:

here 2 is raised to the power of 2 and then the result is raised to the power of 2. If only one value is given, it will raise it to the power of 2, as in:

from Matematica import xpnt

x = xpnt([3])
print(x)

output:

Note that you can work with lists just like the basic operators.

nRoot(arg0=1, arg1=2)

gets the ‘n’ root of a number, as in ‘a square root’(witch is default when only the first argument is given).

sample:

from Matematica import nRoot

x = nRoot(8, 3)
print(x)

output:

2.0

Note the floating point. nRoot() has a floating point precision of 1, see an example:

from Matematica import nRoot

x = nRoot(10)
print(x)

output:

3.1

qdeq(a, b, c)

solves a simple quadratic equation and returns a tuple with the results. the first item is the ‘+’ version of the formula, and the second is the ‘-‘ version. if the discriminant is negative, it returns False

qdeqDisc(a, b, c)

calculates the discriminant for the quadratic formula.
