A totally overkill command line math expression parser / interpreter.
Installation instructions will follow soon.
For short expressions, the easiest way to use the calculator is by passing a math expression as a command line argument to the application.
Examples:
$ calc 4 * (5 + 3)
// Output: 32
$ calc 4^2 + sqrt 25 - 20
// Output: 1
Program => Expression+
Expression => ( Expression ) | UnaryOperation Expression | Expression BinaryOperation Expression | Number
UnaryOperation => - | sqrt | √
BinaryOperation => + | - | / | * | ^ | % | mod
Number => Integer | Float
Integer => Digits
Float => Digits . Digits | . Digits | Digits .
Digits => [0-9]+
Notes (not necessarily related to the specification):
The unary operations
sqrt
and√
are equivalent.
The binary operations
mod
and%
are equivalent.In the current version multiple-expression programs are not allowed.
