      3 # Function import
      4 
      5 Import functions from an object or a module.
      6 
      7 This function is only available on a mathjs instance created using `create`.
      8 
      9 
     10 ## Syntax
     11 
     12 ```js
     13 math.import(functions)
     14 math.import(functions, options)
     15 ```
     16 
     17 ### Where
     18 
     19 - `functions: Object`
     20   An object with functions or factories to be imported.
     21 - `options: Object` An object with import options. Available options:
     22   - `override: boolean`
     23     If true, existing functions will be overwritten. False by default.
     24   - `silent: boolean`
     25     If true, the function will not throw errors on duplicates or invalid
     26     types. False by default.
     27   - `wrap: boolean`
     28     If true, the functions will be wrapped in a wrapper function
     29     which converts data types like Matrix to primitive data types like Array.
     30     The wrapper is needed when extending math.js with libraries which do not
     31     support these data type. False by default.
     32 
     33 ### Parameters
     34 
     35 Parameter | Type | Description
     36 --------- | ---- | -----------
     37 `functions` | Object &#124; Array | Object with functions to be imported.
     38 `options` | Object | Import options.
     39 
     40 ## Examples
     41 
     42 ```js
     43 import { create, all } from 'mathjs'
     44 import * as numbers from 'numbers'
     45 
     46 // create a mathjs instance
     47 const math = create(all)
     48 
     49 // define new functions and variables
     50 math.import({
     51   myvalue: 42,
     52   hello: function (name) {
     53     return 'hello, ' + name + '!'
     54   }
     55 })
     56 
     57 // use the imported function and variable
     58 math.myvalue * 2               // 84
     59 math.hello('user')             // 'hello, user!'
     60 
     61 // import the npm module 'numbers'
     62 // (must be installed first with `npm install numbers`)
     63 math.import(numbers, {wrap: true})
     64 
     65 math.fibonacci(7) // returns 13
     66 ```
