termito

Termito is a simple term rewriting library for clojure. It is inspired by the kibit rule system but with more features.

Usage

Add [jonase/termito 0.0.1] to your dependencies in project.clj.

Example

Here are some simple arithmetic rules:

(defrules zero-rules
  [(* 0 ?x) 0])

(defrules identity-rules
  [(* 1 ?x) ?x]
  [(+ 0 ?x) ?x])

(def rules (concat zero-rules 
                   identity-rules) 

(simplify '(+ (* 0 x) (* 1 y)) rules)
;; => y

More advanced examples can be found in src/termito/examples. For example, combining the arithmetic rules with the following derivative rules

(defrules derivative-rules
  [(D (pow ?x ?n) ?x) (* ?n (pow ?x (- ?n 1)))]
  [(D (* ?a (pow ?x ?n)) ?x) (* ?a (D (pow ?x ?n) ?x))])

termito can solve simple math problems like "what is the second derivative of 5x^3":

=> (simplify '(D (D (* 5 (pow x 3)) x) x) 
             (concat arithmetic/rules derivative-rules)))
(* 30 x)
