# Function simplifyConstant

simplifyConstant() takes a mathjs expression (either a Node representing
a parse tree or a string which it parses to produce a node), and replaces
any subexpression of it consisting entirely of constants with the computed
value of that subexpression.


## Syntax

```js
simplifyConstant(expr)
simplifyConstant(expr, options)
```

### Parameters

Parameter | Type | Description
--------- | ---- | -----------
`node` | Node &#124; string |  The expression to be simplified
`options` | Object |  Simplification options, as per simplify()

### Returns

Type | Description
---- | -----------
Node | Returns expression with constant subexpressions evaluated


### Throws

Type | Description
---- | -----------


## Examples

```js
math.simplifyConstant('x + 4*3/6')  // Node "x + 2"
math.simplifyConstant('z cos(0)')   // Node "z 1"
math.simplifyConstant('(5.2 + 1.08)t', {exactFractions: false})  // Node "6.28 t"
```
