Revision history for Perl extension Math::Symbolic.

0.111  Tue Jul 29 12:38:40 2003
	- Added Math::Symbolic::Custom::*.
	- Added custom transformation and test functionality.
	- Added is_sum(), is_constant(), is_integer() to M::S::C::Default
	- Added documentation and tests for the above.
	- Moved apply_derivatives() to the MSC::Default namespace.
	- TODO goals met with this release:
		+ Create a Math::Symbolic::Custom class and a
		  Math::Symbolic::Custom::Default class.
		+ The Math::Symbolic::Custom::Default class is to
		  contain all builtin simplification and term-transformation
		  routines.
		  (Also contains methods that tests trees for particular
		  properties)
		+ All calls to Math::Symbolic methods that cannot be
		  resolved in the Math::Symbolic inheritance hierarchy
		  (which should consist of the package itself, anyhow) and
		  that start with "apply_" should be delegated to the subs
		  named apply_... in the Math::Symbolic::Custom
		  package.
		  ('is_', 'test_', and 'mod_' also delegated.)
		+ Math::Symbolic::Custom should load
		  Math::Symbolic::Custom::Default.
		+ Math::Symbolic::Custom::Default should inherit
		  from a package named Math::Symbolic::Custom::Base
		  which defines a special import routine that automatically
		  adds the loaded module to the @ISA of
		  Math::Symbolic::Custom.
		  (Implemented this using a custom exporter scheme.)
		+ Thus, users can extend the number of
		  Math::Symbolic::Custom's by writing a package with
		  transformation subroutines in it that just inherits
		  from Math::Symbolic::Custom::Base. Upon use-ing the
		  custom module, the routines will automatically be
		  added to Math::Symbolic's transformation and testing
		  repertoire.

0.110  Sat Jul 19 15:16:11 2003
	- Documentation patches.
	- Added total derivatives.
	- Fixed the host of bugs that were discovered while implementing
	  total derivatives.
	- Added tests.
	- Added docs.
	- Added docs section on variable passing styles to Compiler.pm
	- Added implement()
	- Fixed uncovered bugs in total derivatives.
	- TODO goals met with this release:
		+ Add signatures to variables.
		+ Add signature() methods to all elements.
		+ Amend parser to parse signatures.
		+ Given the signature-parser enhancements, total derivatives
		  start making sense.
		  Since function signatures must be defined by their signatures
	 	  when they're used, total derivatives can be applied to all
		  functions. (Or, if their implementation is still undefined,
		  they can possibly still be kicked out because of their
		  non-dependence on a particular variable.)
		+ Add tests for sigs.
		+ Add tests for the new features.

		  operators and some mathematical functions as far as feasible.

		+ Tests for the above.
		+ Documentation for the above changes

	- TODO milestones met with this release:
		+ Add sine/cosine
		+ Amend parser to parse sine/cosine.

		  input string to the parser and have them replaced with
		  (e^x ± e^-x)/2
		+ Amend parser to parse hyperbolic sine/h. cosine.
		+ Add tan, arctan, arcsine, arccosine
		+ Amend parser to parse tan / arctan, arcsine / arccosine.
		+ Find a more reasonable naming scheme for class data and
		  rename appropriately.
		+ Add tests for the new features.
