After reading http://www.math.upenn.edu/~wilf/AeqB.html["A = B" by Marko Petkovsek, Herbert Wilf and Doron Zeilberger], I was inspired to experiment with symbolic computation.
I'm uploading this project in its current state because it took some effort to write a basic parser. Even if I proceed no further, at least I'll have a complete example of a re-entrant Flex/Bison parser.
The 'main' program reads an expression from standard input or from the first command-line argument if present, and pretty-prints it:
$ ./main 'sin(x)cos(y) + e^x; 12+3/4' +((sin(x), cos(y)), ^(e, x)) +─┬──┬─sin───x │ └─cos───y └─^─┬─e └─x +((1, 2), /(3, 4)) +─┬──┬─1 │ └─2 └─/─┬─3 └─4
