The Math Parser is a simple C# library that allows you to evaluate mathematical expressions containing basic operators and parentheses.
-
- Addition:
+
- Subtraction:
-
- Multiplication:
*
- Division:
/
- Equality:
=
- Inequality:
!=
- Modulus (remainder):
%
- Addition:
- Handles expressions with multiple levels of parentheses.
- Follows the standard operator precedence rules (multiplication/division before addition/subtraction).
- Provides error handling for invalid expressions or divide by zero scenarios.
Using the parser in your C# code is straightforward. Here's an example:
using ExprParser;
string expression = "24+8-(2*(12-6)-3)+14/2-(13+2*5)";
try
{
Parser parser = new Parser();
int result = parser.Evaluate(expression);
Console.WriteLine("Result: " + result);
}
catch (Exception ex)
{
Console.WriteLine("Error: " + ex.Message);
}
The parser provides robust error handling for various scenarios, including:
- Argument Exception: If the input expression contains syntax errors or unsupported characters, a parser will be thrown with the appropriate error message.
- DivideByZero Exception: If the expression involves division by zero, a parser will be thrown with an error message indicating the divide by zero scenario.
Ensure that you wrap the evaluation code in a try-catch block to handle exceptions gracefully.
- The parser currently supports only basic mathematical operations (+, -, *, /, %) and parentheses. It does not support advanced functions, trigonometry, logarithms, etc.
- The parser assumes correct syntax and does not perform extensive validation or error recovery.
