The go-calculator package provides a powerful Calculate function for performing basic math calculations with a string input.
To install the latest version of the go-calculator package, use the following command:
go get -u github.com/brianlewyn/go-calculatorThe calculator function assigns a unique identity to each character in the input string. Numbers are maintained in their original form, while other characters are treated as tokens to minimize memory usage. These identities are then stored in a linked list, allowing for left-to-right reading control.
The function validates the grammar of the expression and solves the calculations based on the hierarchy of operations. Numbers are converted when necessary, while retaining their original form as strings when not involved in operations.
The Calculate function takes a string expression as input and returns the calculated result and any potential errors.
package main
import (
"fmt"
"log"
"github.com/brianlewyn/go-calculator"
)
func main() {
expression := "(0.5 + 4.5 - 1) * 10 * √(6-2) / 4^2"
res64, err := basic.Calculate(expression)
if err != nil {
log.Fatal(err)
}
fmt.Printf("[ %s ] = %.2f", expression, res64)
}[ (0.5 + 4.5 - 1) * 10 * √(6-2) / 4^2 ] = 5.00| Calculations | Results |
