\section{And a little bit more}
\begin{tikzlibrary}{ext.misc}
  This library adds miscellaneous utilities to \pgfname math, \pgfname\space or \tikzname.
  \inspiration{FullArc-Q,ForeachUse-Q}{FullArc-A,ForeachUse-A}
\end{tikzlibrary}

\subsection{\pgfname math}

\begin{multicols}{2}
\pgfkeys{/codeexample/every codeexample/.append style={width=3cm}}
\subsubsection{Postfix operator \texttt{R}}

Similar to |\segments[<num>]| in PSTricks, the postfix operator |R| allows the user
to use an arbitrary number of segments of a circle to be used instead of an angle.

\begin{key}{/tikz/full arc=\meta{num} (default |{}|)}
  The number \meta{num} of segments will be set up.
  Using |full arc| with an empty value disables the segmentation and |1R| equals $1^\circ$.
  
  The given value \meta{num} is evaluated when the key is used and doesn't change when
  \meta{num} contains variables that change.
\end{key}
The |R| operator can then be used.
\begin{math-operator}{R}{postfix}{fullarc}
  Multiplies \mvar{x} with $\frac{360}{\meta{num}}$.
\end{math-operator}

\subsubsection{Functions}

\begin{math-function}{strrepeat("\mvar{Text}", \mvar{x})}
\mathcommand
  Returns a string with \mvar{Text} repeated \mvar{x} times.

\begin{codeexample}[]
\pgfmathparse{strrepeat("foo", 5)}
\pgfmathresult
\end{codeexample}
\end{math-function}

\begin{math-function}{isInString("\mvar{String}", "\mvar{Text}")}
\mathcommand
  Returns |1| (true) if \mvar{Text} contains \mvar{String},
  otherwise |0| (false).

\begin{codeexample}[]
\pgfmathparse{isInString("foo", "bar")}
\pgfmathresult \ and\ 
\pgfmathparse{isInString("foo", "foobar")}
\pgfmathresult
\end{codeexample}
\end{math-function}

\begin{math-function}{strcat("\mvar{Text A}", "\mvar{Text B}", …)}
\mathcommand
  Returns the concatenation of all given parameters.

\begin{codeexample}[]
\pgfmathparse{strcat("blue!", int(7*3), "!green")}
\pgfmathresult
\end{codeexample}
\end{math-function}


\begin{math-function}{isEmpty("\mvar{Text}")}
\mathcommand
  Returns |1| (true) if \mvar{Text} is empty, otherwise |0| (false).
  %
\begin{codeexample}[]
\pgfmathparse{isEmpty("foo")} \pgfmathresult\ and\ 
\pgfmathparse{isEmpty("")}    \pgfmathresult\ and\ 
\def\emptyText{}
\pgfmathparse{isEmpty("\emptyText")} \pgfmathresult
\end{codeexample}
\end{math-function}

\begin{math-function}{atanXY(\mvar{x},\mvar{y})}
\mathcommand
  Arctangent of $\mvar y\div \mvar x$ in degrees. This also takes into account the quadrant.
  This is just a argument-swapped version of |atan2|\indexMathFunctionO{atan2} which makes it easier to use
  the |\p| commands of the |calc|\indexLibraryO{calc} library.
  %
\begin{codeexample}[]
\pgfmathparse{atanXY(3,4)} \pgfmathresult
\end{codeexample}
\end{math-function}
\begin{math-function}{atanYX(\mvar{y},\mvar{x})}
\mathcommand
   Arctangent of $y\div x$ in degrees. This also takes into account the quadrant.
\begin{codeexample}[]
\pgfmathparse{atanYX(4,3)} \pgfmathresult
\end{codeexample}
\end{math-function}

\subsubsection{Functions: using coordinates}
The following functions can only be used with \pgfname\space and/or \tikzname.
Since the arguments are usually plain text (and not numbers) one has to wrap
them in |"|.
\begin{math-function}{anglebetween("\mvar{p1}", "\mvar{p2}")}\mathcommand
  Return the angle between the centers of the nodes \mvar{p1} and \mvar{p2}.
\end{math-function}
\begin{math-function}{qanglebetween("\mvar{p}")}\mathcommand
  Return the angle between the origin and the center of the node \mvar{p}.
\end{math-function}
\begin{math-function}{distancebetween("\mvar{p1}", "\mvar{p2}")}\mathcommand
  Return the distance (in pt) between the centers of the nodes \mvar{p1} and \mvar{p2}.
\end{math-function}
\begin{math-function}{qdistancebetween("\mvar{p}")}\mathcommand
  Return the distance (in pt) between the origin and the center of the node \mvar{p}.
\end{math-function}

\end{multicols}

\begin{codeexample}[width=6cm,preamble=\usetikzlibrary{calc,ext.misc,through}]
\begin{tikzpicture}
\path (0,0) coordinate (A) + (0:4) coordinate (B) +(75:4) coordinate (C);
\draw (A) -- (B) -- (C) -- cycle;
\foreach \cnt in {1,...,4}{
  \pgfmathsetmacro\triA{distancebetween("B","C")}
  \pgfmathsetmacro\triB{distancebetween("C","A")}
  \pgfmathsetmacro\triC{distancebetween("A","B")}
  \path (barycentric cs:A=\triA,B=\triB,C=\triC) coordinate (M)
       node [draw, circle through=($(A)!(M)!(C)$)] (M) {};
  \draw ($(C)-(A)$) coordinate (vecB)
      (M.75-90) coordinate (@)
      (intersection of @--[shift=(vecB)]@ and B--C) coordinate (C) -- 
      (intersection of @--[shift=(vecB)]@ and B--A) coordinate (A);}
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}

\subsection{\pgfname for}

Instead of |\foreach \var in {start, start + delta, ..., end}| one can use
|\foreach \var[use int=start to end step delta]|.

\begin{key}{/pgf/foreach/use int=\meta{start}|to|\meta{end}\opt{|step|\meta{delta}}}
The values \meta{start}, \meta{end} and \meta{delta} are evaluates by \pgfname math at initialization.
The part |step |\meta{delta} is optional (\meta{delta} = 1).
\end{key}

\begin{key}{/pgf/foreach/use float=\meta{start}|to|\meta{end}\opt{|step|\meta{delta}}}
Same as above, however the results are not truncated.
\end{key}

%TODO: edges to and edges through
%\pagebreak

\subsection{\pgfname keys}
\begin{pgfkeyslibrary}{ext.pgfkeys-plus}
  This extends \pgfname keys and adds helpful |/utils| keys as well as handlers.
  This library gets loaded by the |ext.misc| library.%
  \footnote{\texttt{\string\usepgfkeyslibrary} is an upcoming feature of \pgfname/\tikzname.
    For now, you need to load \texttt{ext.misc}
    or manually \texttt{\string\input} the file \texttt{pgfkeyslibraryext.pgfkeys-plus.code.tex}
    with \texttt{@} being a letter.}
\end{pgfkeyslibrary}

\begin{multicols}{2}
\subsubsection{Conditionals}

\begin{key}{/utils/if=\marg{cond}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  This key checks the conditional \meta{cond} and applies the styles \meta{true}
  if \meta{cond} is true, otherwise \meta{false}.
  \meta{cond} can be anything that \pgfname math understands.
  
  As a side effect on how \pgfname keys parses argument, the \meta{false} argument is
  actually optional.
\end{key}

The following keys use \TeX' macros |\if|, |\ifx|, |\ifnum| and |\ifdim| for faster
executions.

\begin{key}{/utils/TeX/if=\meta{token A}\meta{token B}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  This key checks via |\if| if \meta{token A} matches \meta{token B}
  and applies the styles \meta{true} if it does, otherwise \meta{false}.
  
  As a side effect on how \pgfname keys parses argument, the \meta{false} argument is
  actually optional.
\end{key}

\begin{key}{/utils/TeX/ifx=\meta{token A}\meta{token B}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  As above but via |\ifx|.
\end{key}

\begin{key}{/utils/TeX/ifnum=\marg{num cond}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  This key checks |\ifnum|\meta{num cond}
  and applies the styles \meta{true} if true, otherwise \meta{false}.
  A delimiting |\relax| will be inserted after \meta{num cond}.
  
  As a side effect on how \pgfname keys parses arguments, the \meta{false} argument is
  actually optional.
\end{key}

\begin{key}{/utils/TeX/ifdim=\meta{dim cond}\meta{true}\opt{\meta{false}}}
  As above but with |\ifdim|.
\end{key}

\begin{key}{/utils/TeX/ifempty=\meta{Text}\meta{true}\opt{\meta{false}}}
  This checks whether \meta{Text} is empty and applies styles \meta{true} if true,
  otherwise \meta{false}.
\end{key}
\begin{key}{/utils/TeX/ifxempty=\meta{Text}\meta{true}\opt{\meta{false}}}
  This checks whether fully expanded \meta{Text} is empty and applies styles \meta{true} if true,
  otherwise \meta{false}.
\end{key}

\subsubsection{Handlers}

While already a lot of values given to keys are evaluated by \pgfname math at some point,
not all of them are.

\begin{handler}{{.pgfmath}|=|\meta{eval}}
  This handler evaluates \meta{eval} before it is handed to the key.
  
  This handler works almost the same as the |.evaluated|\indexHandlerO{.evaluated}
  handler but it does its evaluation in a group so that the result will 
  not overwrite any other results.
\end{handler}

\begin{handler}{{.pgfmath int}|=|\meta{eval}}
  As above but truncates the result.
\end{handler}

\begin{handler}{{.pgfmath wrap}|=|\marg{wrapper}\marg{eval}}
  This feeds the result of \meta{eval} as |#1| to \meta{wrapper}.
  
  In the example below, one could have used the \referenceKeyandIndexO[/pgf/foreach/]{evaluate}
  key from the |\foreach| loop.
\begin{codeexample}[width=3.7cm,preamble=\usetikzlibrary{ext.pgfkeys-plus}]
\tikz\foreach \i in {0,10,...,100}
\draw[
  line width=+.25cm,
  % needs ## because its inside the \foreach body
  color/.pgfmath wrap={red!##1!blue}{sqrt(\i)*10}
]
  (0,\i/40) -- +(right:3);
\end{codeexample}
\end{handler}

\begin{handler}{{.pgfmath if}|=|\marg{cond}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  Evaluates \meta{cond} with \pgfname Math and returns \meta{true} or \meta{false} to the used key respectively.
\end{handler}
\begin{handler}{{.if}|=|\meta{token A}\meta{token B}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  Checks via |\if| if \meta{token A} matches \meta{token B}
  and applies the value \meta{true} if it does, otherwise \meta{false}.
\end{handler}
\begin{handler}{{.ifx}|=|\meta{token A}\meta{token B}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  As above but via |\ifx|.
\end{handler}
\begin{handler}{{.ifnum}|=|\marg{ifnum cond}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  Checks via |\ifnum| if \meta{ifnum cond}
  and applies the value \meta{true} if it does, otherwise \meta{false}.
\end{handler}
\begin{handler}{{.ifdim}|=|\marg{ifdim cond}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  As above but via |\ifdim|.
\end{handler}
\begin{handler}{{.ifxempty}|=|\marg{Text}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  Checks whether a fully expanded \meta{Text} is empty
  and applies the value \meta{true} if it does, otherwise \meta{false}.
\end{handler}
\begin{handler}{{.ifempty}|=|\marg{Text}\marg{true}\opt{\marg{false}}}
  Checks whether \meta{Text} is empty
  and applies the value \meta{true} if it does, otherwise \meta{false}.
\end{handler}
\begin{handler}{{.List}|=|\marg{\meta{e1}, \meta{e2}, \dots, \meta{en}}}
  This handler evaluates the given list with |\foreach| and concatenates the element and
  the result is then given to the used key.
\end{handler}
\end{multicols}
\begin{codeexample}[width=6cm,preamble=\usetikzlibrary{fit,ext.misc}]
\begin{tikzpicture}[nodes={draw, dashed, inner sep=+10pt}]
  \foreach \point [count=\cnt] in {(0,0), (0,2), (2,0), (2,2), (3,3), (-1,-1)}
    \node[circle, fill, inner sep=1pt, text=white] (point-\cnt) at \point {\cnt};
  \node[gray, fit/.List={(point-1),(point-...),(point-4)}] {}; 
  \node[red,  fit/.List={(point-1),(point-...),(point-5)}] {}; 
  \node[blue, fit/.List={(point-1),(point-...),(point-6)}] {};
\end{tikzpicture}
\end{codeexample}
