Development track for STACK

Requests for features and ideas for developing STACK are all recorded in Future plans. The past development history is documented on Development history.

Version 4.4.6

TODO:

  1. Support for PHP 8.2. See issue #986.
  2. Fix markdown problems. See issue #420.
  3. Error messages: use caserror.class more fully to use user information to target error messages.
  4. Remove all "cte" code from Maxima - mostly install.

For "inputs 2"?

  • Better CSS, including "tool tips". May need to refactor JavaScript. (See issue #380)
  • Add support for matrices with floating point entries, and testing numerical accuracy.
  • Expand support for input validation options to matrices (e.g. floatnum, rationalize etc.)
  • Update MCQ to accept units.
  • Add a base N check to the numeric input.
  • Refactor DB of 'insterStars' and remove stack_input_factory::convert_legacy_insert_stars. Really use new values throughout. See Future plans for syntax of answers and STACK

Other

  • Better install code (see #332).
  • Move find_units_synonyms into the parser more fully?
  • 1st version of API.
  • Enable individual questions to load Maxima libraries. (See issue #305)
  • Markdown support?
