Symbolic Differentiator

A C++ program that performs symbolic differentiation of mathematical expressions.

Features

• Parses algebraic mathematical expressions into an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST).
• Differentiates expressions with respect to a given variable.
• Simplifies the resulting derivative expression.
• Supports basic arithmetic operations (+, -, *, /) and variables.

Building

To build the project, you will need a C++ compiler that supports C++17. Then, simply run make:

make

This will create an executable named sdi in the root directory.

Usage

To run the program, execute the sdi executable:

./sdi

The program will prompt you to enter a mathematical expression and the variable to differentiate with respect to.

Example

Enter an expression: 2*x^2+5
Differentiate with respect to: x
Parsed expression AST: ((2 * x^2) + 5)
Derivative: 2*2*x

Testing

I'm lazy.
