Getting Started

FigurateNum ships in two installation modes: a stable core for sequence generation, and an optional extension for visualization.

Stable version

This includes sequence generation and core functionality, with no dependencies beyond the Python standard library. Requires Python ≥ 3.12.

pip install figuratenum

Visualization tools (experimental)

Visualization components are under active development and may change in future versions.

The visualization module provides two experimental classes:

• ComplexViz, for rendering generating functions as phase portraits in $\mathbb{C}$
• DiscreteViz, for visualizing modular patterns in $\mathbb{Z}/n\mathbb{Z}$

These tools depend on NumPy, SymPy, and Matplotlib.
