Created page with "<pre> Math( <expression> ) </pre> === Description === Parse a string containing mathematical equations. === Parameters === ==== expression ==== Any valid numeric expression...."

New page

<pre>
Math( <expression> )
</pre>

=== Description ===

Parse a string containing mathematical equations.

=== Parameters ===

==== expression ====

Any valid numeric expression.

=== Return Value ===

Returns the resolved number.

=== Remarks ===

This is very similar to Eval() however attempts to return the numeric value and is better than Eval() for this task.

=== Example ===

<syntaxhighlight lang="sputnik">
// A simple one
$val = Math(" 100 + (100 / 2) ");
println($val);

// Using variables
$a = 90;
$val = Math(" 100 + ($a / 2) ");
println($val);

// Using constants and functions
$val = Math(" @PI + 100 + ($a / 2) + Abs(-1000) + Math( '100 + 1337' ) ");
println($val);
</syntaxhighlight>
