texlive-numerica 2025.2

Numerically evaluate mathematical expressions in LaTeX form

This package defines a command to wrap around a mathematical expression in its LaTeX form and, once values are assigned to variables, numerically evaluate it. The intent is to avoid the need to modify the LaTeX form of the expression being evaluated. For programs with a preview facility like LyX, or compile-as-you-go systems, interactive back-of-envelope calculations and numerical exploration are possible within the document being worked on.

Installation

Install texlive-numerica 2025.2 as follows:

The texlive-numerica package provides more outputs besides the default (out). You can install them by appending :output-name to the package specification. For example:

You can also install packages in augmented, pure or containerized environments for development or simply to try them out without polluting your user profile. See the guix shell documentation for more information.
