Symbolic Differentiator

Command line tool for computing differentials of single variable polynomial expressions.

Compiling

Clone the repository, navigate to the project directory and run the following command on the terminal:

$ g++ main.cpp -o symb-diff

Run the executable to begin computing differentials:

$ ./symb-diff
$ SymbDiff ('q'/'exit'/'quit'/CTRL-C to exit)
$ >

Includes

• Implicit multiplication support. For example, 4x is interpreted as 4*x and vice-versa.
• Implicit parse precedence evaluation (thanks to recursive descent!). For now, explicit parse precedence specification via parentheses will result in a parse error. I have nothing against parentheses, I just felt they were unnecessary for this base implementation.
