Dangl.Calculator

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
}

`EULER`	Mathematical constant e = 2,718282
`'-' expression`	Unary minus sign (negative numbers)
`'+' expression`	Unary plus sign (positive numbers)
`'(' expression ')' expression`	Expressions without multiplication sign, e.g. `2(3)` -> `2*(3)`
`expression '(' expression ')'`	Expressions without multiplication sign, e.g. `2(3)` -> `2*(3)`

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
