💡 Usage Examples

Expression Evaluator

The evaluate tool is the most powerful feature, allowing complex mathematical expressions:

// Financial calculations
evaluate('(1 + 0.05)^10 * 10000'); // → Compound interest: $16,288.95

// Statistics with embedded calculations
evaluate('mean([1,2,3,4,5]) + variance([10,20,30,40,50])'); // → Mean + variance

// Advanced mathematical operations
evaluate('factorial(5) + gcd(48, 18) * sqrt(16)'); // → 120 + 6 * 4 = 144

// Machine learning preprocessing
evaluate('correlation([1,2,3,4], [2,4,6,8]) * 100'); // → Perfect correlation: 100

// Complex statistical analysis
evaluate('zscore(85, mean([70,75,80,85,90]), standardDeviation([70,75,80,85,90]))');

// Modulo operations in expressions
evaluate('17 % 5 + power(2, 3)'); // → 2 + 8 = 10
evaluate('(100 % 7) * factorial(3)'); // → 2 * 6 = 12

Individual Tool Usage

Each mathematical operation is also available as a standalone tool:

// Basic arithmetic
add(15, 27); // → 42
multiply(6, 7); // → 42
power(2, 10); // → 1024

// Modulo operations
modulo(17, 5); // → 2 (remainder when 17 is divided by 5)
remainder(17, 5); // → 2 (IEEE 754 remainder operation)
modulo(100, 7); // → 2 (checking divisibility)
modulo(123, 10); // → 3 (extracting last digit)

// Statistical analysis
mean([85, 92, 78, 96, 88]); // → 87.8
standardDeviation([10, 12, 14, 16, 18]); // → 2.83
percentile([1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10], 75); // → 7.75

// Data science operations
normalizeArray([10, 20, 30, 40, 50]); // → [0, 0.25, 0.5, 0.75, 1]
correlation([1, 2, 3, 4, 5], [2, 4, 6, 8, 10]); // → 1 (perfect positive correlation)

🎯 Real-World Applications

Financial Analysis

// Investment growth calculation
evaluate('10000 * (1 + 0.07)^20'); // $38,696.84 after 20 years at 7%

// Risk assessment using standard deviation
standardDeviation([12.5, 15.2, 8.7, 18.9, 11.3]); // Portfolio volatility

Data Science & Analytics

// Correlation analysis
correlation([100, 150, 200, 250, 300], [25, 30, 35, 40, 45]); // → 1.0

// Data preprocessing pipeline
evaluate('mean(normalizeArray([10, 20, 30, 40, 50]))'); // → 0.5

Statistical Research

// Population analysis
evaluate(
    'zscore(175, mean([160, 165, 170, 175, 180]), standardDeviation([160, 165, 170, 175, 180]))'
);

// Percentile calculations for distributions
percentile([45, 52, 58, 61, 66, 72, 78, 83, 89, 95], 90); // → 91.5

Engineering Calculations

// Complex mathematical formulas
evaluate('sqrt(power(3, 2) + power(4, 2))'); // → 5 (Pythagorean theorem)

// Precision engineering
roundToPrecision(3.14159265359, 4); // → 3.1416

Programming & Algorithm Applications

// Checking divisibility
modulo(128, 8); // → 0 (128 is divisible by 8)
modulo(129, 8); // → 1 (129 is not divisible by 8)

// Cycling through values (circular arrays)
evaluate('5 % 3'); // → 2 (index 5 maps to position 2 in 3-element array)
evaluate('(10 + 7) % 12'); // → 5 (hours calculation: 10 AM + 7 hours = 5 PM)

// Hash table indexing
modulo(1337, 101); // → 17 (hash value 1337 maps to bucket 17 in 101-bucket table)

// Digital signal processing
evaluate('modulo(123456, power(10, 3))'); // → 456 (extract last 3 digits)

// Game development (wrapping coordinates)
evaluate('(playerX + moveX) % mapWidth'); // Wrap player position on game map
