Math expression tokenizer for expression validation

token: class for token object {type, value}
tokenize: function that takes in math expression and returns
array with tokens, also takes in an optional integer [0-2] variable for choosing
only a delimiter as a function delimiter. Default is 3, which doesn't force any
particular delimiter and recognizes as function any alphanumerical
expression right before the opening delimiter.

> tokenize(__expr__, __index(optional)__)

| Index | Delimiter |
| :---: | :---: |
| 0 | ( |
| 1 | { |
| 2 | [ |
| 3 | Default no particular delimiter |

In the new version (^1.1.0), it's no longer lparenthesis or rparenthesis, it's rather
ldelimiter, rdelimiter.

#### Same as in example2, but this time with the optional argument being assigned the value 1: curly braces

let tokenizer = require('mathtokenizer')
let A = tokenizer.tokenize("f1(x+2)", 1) //Optional argument is given 1
console.log(A)
/*Code produced:
[
token { type: 'variable', value: 'f1' }, //f1 is recognized as a variable this time because it's followed by a parenthesis and not a curly brace
token { type: 'operator', value: '*' },
token { type: 'ldelimiter', value: '(' },
token { type: 'variable', value: 'x' },
token { type: 'operator', value: '+' },
token { type: 'number', value: '2' },
token { type: 'rdelimiter', value: ')' }
