New on CTAN: tkz-elements
by CTAN Announcements 27 Oct '23

27 Oct '23

Alain Matthes submitted the tkz-elements package. Version: 1.00b License: lppl1.3 Summary description: A Lua library for drawing Euclidean geometry with TikZ or tkz-euclide Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Here’s the first version of tkz-elements: a library written in Lua. This library can be used to calculate the points of geometric figures in the Euclidean plane. Combined with tkz-euclide or TikZ, it can be used to precisely define the nodes that will be used to construct the figures. This version is a beta version and still under development, so I advise you to use it now as a tool to discover the possibilities offered by Lua combined with tkz-euclide. If you’d like to contribute corrections or new ideas, please don’t hesitate to contact me by e-mail. Future developments will include matrix calculations, parabola and hyperbola constructions solving equations and systems, syntax corrections and more. ---------------------------------------------------------------------- The package’s Catalogue entry can be viewed at https://ctan.org/pkg/tkz-elements The package’s files themselves can be inspected at https://mirrors.ctan.org/macros/latex/contrib/tkz/tkz-elements/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------ Thanks for the upload.
