CTAN Update: xint
by CTAN Announcements 02 Feb '20

02 Feb '20

Jean-François Burnol submitted an update to the xint package. Version: 1.4 2020-01-31 License: lppl1.3c Summary description: Expandable operations on long numbers Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This is a major release with some breaking changes. Selected highlights: - The expanded primitive (TeXLive 2019) is required. Its usage has allowed dropping formerly used csname techniques. There is no more impact on the string pool memory. - Square brackets [...] are now associated with actual nested structures. For example xinteval{1, [2, [3, 4]], 5} produces 1, [2, [3, 4]], 5 (recall this is free bloatware). - Scalar operations on one-dimensional lists (which as it turned out matched the NumPy broadcasting concept) are provisorily dropped. Alternative syntax exists to rescue old documents. - Operations on nested lists are inspired from NumPy's. Currently, nested (basic) slicing and indexing is implemented. But the step parameters are not. The broadcasting of scalar operations is not yet implemented but the user can define universal functions, i.e. functions operating on all leaves of the data. Our structures have leaves at arbitrary varying depths, they are not necessarily hyperrectangular like NumPy's. Constructors are provided, for example ndmap() maps a function on all Cartesian n-uples built from items (at top level) of n given lists. - Variables in function declarations may be multi-letter words. - The last positional variable name may be prefixed with a * as in Python to signal it is a nut-ple receiving all arguments of the function calls beyond the first positional ones (variadic argument). Generally speaking, * is the unpacking operator. - ... quite a few more features. See CHANGES.html and xint.pdf. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/xint The package’s files themselves can be inspected at http://mirror.ctan.org/macros/generic/xint/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.

New on CTAN: mpfonts
by CTAN Announcements 01 Feb '20

01 Feb '20

Daniel Benjamin Miller submitted the mpfonts package. Version number: 2020-01-30 License type: knuth lppl1.3c ofl other-free pd Summary description: Computer Modern Type 3 fonts converted using MetaPost Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The Computer Modern fonts are available in Type 1 format, but these renditions are somewhat thin and spindly, and produce much lighter results than the originals. It is alternatively possible to use METAFONT bitmaps, but this has its disadvantages in comparison with vector fonts. These fonts are conversions to Type 3 fonts, done entirely in METAPOST; they are vector fonts which are a direct conversion from the original METAFONT files, so they are the design most authentic to the originals. However, these fonts, because they are PostScript Type 3 fonts, are not suitable for on-screen reading, and should probably only be used for printing. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- This package is located at http://mirror.ctan.org/fonts/mpfonts More information is at https://www.ctan.org/pkg/mpfonts ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
