Dangl.Calculator
Online Documentation
Changelog
This calculator is using the ANTLR4 C# target to calculate results from formulas that are passed in as string.
Whenever a calculation is performed, a CalculationResult is returned with the following properties:
| Property | Type | |
|---|---|---|
| IsValid | bool | true if the formula could be parsed and calculated, else false |
| ErrorPosition | int | Position of the offending symbol in the line, 0 based index, for invalid results, else null |
| ErrorMessage | string | ANTLR error message for invalid formulas, else null |
| Result | double | NaN for invalid formulas, else the actual result |
Installation
Install it via NuGet: Dangl.Calculator
CI builds are available via MyGet.

Compatibility
This project targets netstandard2.0, netstandard1.1 and net45. Due to .Net 4.5.2 being the currently latest supported version
by Microsoft and the xUnit test suite, no tests are run for net45 and net451.
Project Configuration
If this project is consumed in a project using the full .Net framework with a newer version of
Antlr4.Runtime, the necessary AssemblyBindingRedirects are not automatically generated with the current
dotnet CLI tooling. This is scheduled to be fixed with the 2.0 release. In the meantime, the following should
be added to the consumers csproj:
<PropertyGroup Condition=" '$(TargetFramework)' == 'net461' ">
<AutoGenerateBindingRedirects>true</AutoGenerateBindingRedirects>
<GenerateBindingRedirectsOutputType>true</GenerateBindingRedirectsOutputType>
</PropertyGroup>The Condition=" '$(TargetFramework)' == 'net461' " attribute may be changed as necessary or removed.
Example
using Dangl.Calculator;
public void Example()
{
var formula = "5+5";
var calculation = Calculator.Calculate(formula);
Console.WriteLine(calculation.Result);
Console.WriteLine(calculation.IsValid);
// 10.0
// true

expression may be any expression as functions can be nested. Example: DEG(2*PI) or LOG(10^3).
Formulas can be case invariant, e.g. SIN, sin and siN are all considered the same.
An optional equals sign = at the end of the function is allowed.
Comments in Formulas
Comments in Formulas are supported by encapsulating them either in /*...*/, '...' or "..." quote styles. Examples:
4/*Length*/*3/*Width*/ resolves to 12
4'Length'*3'Width' resolves to 12
4"Length"*3"Width" resolves to 12
Assembly Strong Naming & Usage in Signed Applications
This module produces strong named assemblies when compiled. When consumers of this package require strongly named assemblies, for example when they
themselves are signed, the outputs should work as-is.
The key file to create the strong name is adjacent to the csproj file in the root of the source project. Please note that this does not increase
security or provide tamper-proof binaries, as the key is available in the source code per
Microsoft guidelines
