CorePackage
If only minimal functionalities are required, register the CorePackage instead.
use rhai::Engine;
use rhai::packages::{Package, CorePackage};
let mut engine = Engine::new_raw();
let package = CorePackage::new();
// Register the package into the 'Engine'.
package.register_into_engine(&mut engine);
