Math::Symbolic::Constant - Constants in symbolic calculations

SYNOPSIS

use Math::Symbolic;

DESCRIPTION

EXPORT

None by default.

METHODS

Constructor new

Takes hash reference of key-value pairs as argument. Special case: a value for the constant instead of the hash. Returns a Math::Symbolic::Constant.

Constructor zero

Arguments are treated as key-value pairs of object attributes. Returns a Math::Symbolic::Constant with value of 0.

Constructor one

Arguments are treated as key-value pairs of object attributes. Returns a Math::Symbolic::Constant with value of 1.

Constructor euler

Arguments are treated as key-value pairs of object attributes. Returns a Math::Symbolic::Constant with value of e, the Euler number. The object has its 'special' attribute set to 'euler'.

Method value

Optional argument: sets the object's value. Returns the object's value.

Method special

Optional argument: sets the object's special attribute. Returns the object's special attribute.
