giantsquid Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 My plan is to add a sort of calculator to my script. I currently have a hotkey to bring up an input box, which is used to control other parts of the script. I hope to use this to enter the equations to be solved, instead of making GUI that is a clone of the calculator that comes with windows. But I cannot find any (easy) way to input the equation as a string, and then evaluate the string. I started working on a function to break the string apart into numbers and operators, which can then be solved more easily, but this is turning out to be harder than I thought it would be. Adding brackets and such will make it even more difficult. If I have a string such as $input = "1.5*(9-6/2)" , is there any simple way to turn this into "9", or should I start working on breaking the input apart, and then solving it? Thanks in advance for any help! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greenmachine Posted January 21, 2006 Share Posted January 21, 2006 Execute() MsgBox (0, "", Execute ("1.5 * (9 - (6/2))")) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
giantsquid Posted January 21, 2006 Author Share Posted January 21, 2006 (edited) Number() will evaluate 4+6, but not "4+6" Execute() does not seem to work for me. Do I need the beta? Edited January 21, 2006 by giantsquid Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moderators SmOke_N Posted January 21, 2006 Moderators Share Posted January 21, 2006 Yes you need beta. Common sense plays a role in the basics of understanding AutoIt... If you're lacking in that, do us all a favor, and step away from the computer. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
