Numerically evaluate mathematical expressions in LaTeX form
Description
This package defines a command to wrap around a mathematical
expression in its LaTeX form and, once values are assigned to
variables, numerically evaluate it. The intent is to avoid the
need to modify the LaTeX form of the expression being
evaluated. For programs with a preview facility like LyX, or
compile-as-you-go systems, interactive back-of-envelope
calculations and numerical exploration are possible within the
document being worked on. The package requires the bundles
l3kernel and l3packages, and the amsmath and mathtools
packages. Other commands iterate and find fixed points of
functions of a single variable, find the zeros or extrema of
such functions, calculate the terms of recurrence relations,
and create multi-column tables of function values (which
requires the booktabs package).
