Announcement text:
scholatex 2.5 — the lycée release. New: the equation form <fn f(x) = (x+2)(x-3)> declares a function as the board does; computes sign tables from the factored expression (exact zeros, forbidden values, checked invariants); weighted probability trees with automatic complements; areas, cobwebs and the normal/binomial laws in ; five descriptive statistics figures (bars, histogram-as-density, pie, boxplot, scatter with least-squares fit); the trigonometric circle with exact remarkable values; the number line, declared or solved from an inequality; six solids in cabinet projection with computed hidden edges; a full transcendental function library (circular, hyperbolic, their inverses, exp/ln/log/logb) shared between computed values and plots; a document-wide precision option for display rounding, and scale: on every drawing. Also: a hardened untrusted mode (instruction and memory limits), smarter label placement everywhere (points, vertices, axes, pies), and example files regrouped one domain per file. Full details in CHANGELOG.md.

scholatex – A tag-based language for print-ready teaching worksheets, built on LuaLaTeX
scholatex is a LuaLaTeX document class for teachers who need print-ready worksheets without writing LaTeX. The author writes a single .tex file in a compact, readable tag language; the class translates it to LaTeX at compile time and produces output of full LaTeX quality.
