Evaluator is a mathematical expression evaluator for infix notation. It supports variables and functions.
require 'evaluator'
puts Evaluator('1+1')
puts Evaluator('sin pi')
See the test cases for more examples.
A small calculator program (calc.rb) is provided with this library. You can use it as follows:
$ ./calc.rb
> number := 10
10
> number * 3
30
> 1 [joule] in [MeV]
6241509647120.42 MeV
The calculator loads a few natural constants at startup (calc.startup). For unit support my unit gem is used. Units are denoted in brackets e.g. [meter], [kV] etc
