NAME

fit, mersenne, parts − miscellaneous mathematical applications

SYNOPSIS

math/fit [ -ddeg ] [ -v ] [ file ]
math/mersenne [ num ]
math/parts [ -a ] [ num... ]

DESCRIPTION

A collection of simple mathematical utilities. 

math/fit
Fits a polynomial of degree deg to a set of points (x, y) where x is the independent variable, y the dependent one.  All x and y values should be seperated by white space and can be real or integer. The values are read from file or standard input if none is given. The -v option prints a table of actual and expected y values. 

math/mersenne
Tests the primality of the Mersenne numbers ie numbers of the form 2^n-1. The argument num is the power of 2 in the above. 

math/parts
Calculates the number of partitions of the given number(s). The -a option will print out a table of the number of partitions of all numbers up to  the given number(s).
