cxroots
=======

cxroots is a Python package for finding all the roots of a function, *f(z)*, of a single complex variable within a given contour, *C*, in the complex plane.  It requires only that both:

-  *f(z)* has no roots or poles on *C*
-  *f(z)* is analytic in the interior of *C*

The implementation is primarily based on [KB]_ and evaluates contour integrals involving *f(z)* and its derivative *f'(z)* to determine the roots.  If *f'(z)* is not provided then it is approximated using a finite difference method.  The roots are further refined using Newton-Raphson if *f'(z)* is given or Muller's method if not.  See the `documentation <https://rparini.github.io/cxroots/>`_ for a more details and a tutorial.

With `Python <http://www.python.org/>`_ installed you can install cxroots by entering in the terminal/command line

.. code:: bash

    pip install cxroots

Example
-------

.. code:: python

    from numpy import exp, cos, sin
    f = lambda z: (exp(2*z)*cos(z)-1-sin(z)+z**5)*(z*(z+2))**2
    
    from cxroots import Circle
    C = Circle(0,3)
    roots = C.roots(f)
    roots.show()

----------

Development
-----------
- Install the `pre-commit <https://pre-commit.com/>`_ and then run :code:`pre-commit install`.  The pre-commit scripts can also be run manually with :code:`pre-commit run --all-files`
- The project uses `ruff <https://docs.astral.sh/ruff/>`_ for formatting and linting. It is run as part of the pre-commit hook and is recommended to be run on save in the developer's editor.

Release Procedure
-----------------
Making a release on GitHub with the tag vX.Y.Z will update the documentation on `master` and push cxroots at the tagged commit to PyPI.

The documentation can be manually generated by running `./create_docs` in the `docs_src` directory.
