Class Method Details

.generate(n, depth = 4) ⇒ Expression

Returns a new, randomly generated expression tree for a given number.

Parameters:

  • n (Integer) —

    The number to be obfuscated.

  • depth (Integer) (defaults to: 4) —

    Desired depth (complexity) of the expression.

Returns:

.makeTeX(s) ⇒ Object

Use this helper method to create a full TeX document around a formula.
