from c a s a d i i m p o r t *
from numpy i m p o r t *
x = SX. sym (" x ")
y = x **2
z = s i n (y) + y
print z
The printout value of z may give you the false impression that the evaluation of z will involve two multiplications
of x. This is not the case. This is what’s going on under the hood:
The expression tree of z does not contain two subexpressions x*x, rather it contains two pointers to a signle
subexpression x*x. In fact, in the C++ implementation, an S object is really not more than a collection of pointers.
It are SXNode objects which really contain the data associated with subexpressions.
CasADi generates SXnodes at a very fine-grained level. Even ’sin(y)’ is an SXNode, even though we have not
ourselves declared a variable to point to it.
When evaluating z for a particular numerical value of x, the product is computed only once.
Functions
CasADi’s SXFunction has powerful input/output behaviour. The following input/output primitives are supported: A
function that uses one primitive as input/output is said to be ’single input’/’single output’.
In general, an SXfunction can map from-and-to list/tuples of these primitives.
Functions with scalar valued input
The following code creates and evaluates a single input (scalar valued), single output (scalar valued) function.
57
print
print
f([ y ])
print
f([2])
[ D M a t r i x (3.2432) ]
We can do symbolic derivatives: f’ = dz/dx .
61
print
f . g r a d ()
(( x + x )*(1+ c o s ( sq ( x ))))
The following code creates and evaluates a multi input (scalar valued), multi output (scalar valued) function.

x = SX. sym (" x ") # 1 by 1 matrix serves as scalar

[ [ SX( y ), SX( x ) ] , [ SX(1), SX(1) ] ]
f . i n p u t E x p r (), t y p e ( f . i n p u t E x p r ())
[ SX( x ) ] < t y p e

f . s e t I n p u t (3)
f . e v a l u a t e ()
p r i n t f . g e t O u t p u t ()
Since numbers get cast to SXConstant object, you can also write the following non-efficient code:
59
1 -> 1
print
t y p e ( f . g e t O u t p u t ())
[ SX(@1= sq ( sq ( x )), ( s i n (@1)+@1)) ]
f = S X F u n c t i o n ( ’ f ’, [ x ] , [ z ] ) # z = f(x)
p r i n t "%d −> %d " % ( f . n I n (), f . nOut ())
print
9.41212
We can evaluate symbolically, too:
@1= sq ( x ), ( s i n (@1)+@1)
46
f . s e t I n p u t (2)
f . e v a l u a t e ()
p r i n t f . g e t O u t p u t ()
< c l a s s ’ c a s a d i . c a s a d i . DMatrix ’>
Reevaluation does not require the init call.
Let’s start with creating a simple expression tree z.

A current limitation is that matrix valued input/ouput is handled through flattened vectors Note the peculiar form
of the gradient.
Conclusion
This tutorial showed how SXFunction allows for symbolic or numeric evaluation and differentiation.
