I would like an application that I am creating in Visual Studio 2010 to be able to calculate a multi-step math problem that has been entered by the user into one whole text box.
The user would click a button, and the program would calculate the answer to the problem that they input. I was thinking something along the lines of:
Dim sngAnswer As Integer
sngAnswer = Val(Me.txtInput.Text)
But that doesn’t work. Any ideas?
There is nothing included in the framework which will do this type of expression evaluation automatically.
You will likely want to use an expression parsing library to handle the math expression. NCalc and FLEE are both good options for this.
