# About `rhai-sci`

This crate provides some basic scientific computing utilities for the [`Rhai`](https://rhai.rs/) scripting language, inspired by languages
like MATLAB, Octave, and R. For a complete API reference, check [the docs](https://docs.rs/rhai-sci).

# Install

To use the latest released version of `rhai-sci`, add this to your `Cargo.toml`:

```toml
rhai-sci = "0.2.1"
```

To use the bleeding edge instead, add this:

```toml
rhai-sci = { git = "https://github.com/cmccomb/rhai-sci" }
```

# Usage

Using this crate is pretty simple! If you just want to evaluate a single line of [`Rhai`](https://rhai.rs/), then you only need:

```rust
use rhai::INT;
use rhai_sci::eval;
let result = eval::("argmin([43, 42, -500])").unwrap();
```

If you need to use `rhai-sci` as part of a persistent [`Rhai`](https://rhai.rs/) scripting engine, then do this instead:

```rust
use rhai::{Engine, packages::Package, INT};
use rhai_sci::SciPackage;

// Create a new Rhai engine
let mut engine = Engine::new();

// Add the rhai-sci package to the new engine
engine.register_global_module(SciPackage::new().as_shared_module());

// Now run your code
let value = engine.eval::("argmin([43, 42, -500])").unwrap();
```

# Features

| Feature | Default | Description |
| ----------- | -------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
| `metadata` | Disabled | Enables exporting function metadata and is ___necessary for running doc-tests on Rhai examples___. |
| `io` | Enabled | Enables the [`read_matrix`](#read_matrixfile_path-string---array) function but pulls in several additional dependencies (`polars`, `url`, `temp-file`, `csv-sniffer`, `minreq`). |
| `nalgebra` | Enabled | Enables several functions ([`regress`](#regressx-array-y-array---map), [`inv`](#invmatrix-array---array), [`mtimes`](#mtimesmatrix1-array-matrix2-array---array), [`horzcat`](#horzcatmatrix1-array-matrix2-array---array), [`vertcat`](#vertcatmatrix1-array-matrix2-array---array), [`repmat`](#repmatmatrix-array-nx-i64-ny-i64---array), [`svd`](#svdmatrix-array---map), [`hessenberg`](#hessenbergmatrix-array---map), and [`qr`](#qrmatrix-array---map)) but brings in the `nalgebra` and `linregress` crates. |
| `rand` | Enabled | Enables the [`rand`](#rand) function for generating random FLOAT values and random matrices, but brings in the `rand` crate. |
