Note Submitter: sooncj ---- Modified version of bohwaz's answer: with negative number support and removes the requirement of properly grouped (bracketed) expressions. <?php function calc($equation) { // Remove whitespaces $equation = preg_replace('/\s+/', '', $equation); echo "$equation\n"; $number = '(?:-?\d+(?:[,.]\d+)?|pi|π)'; // What is a number $functions = '(?:sinh?|cosh?|tanh?|abs|acosh?|asinh?|atanh?|exp|log10|deg2rad|rad2deg|sqrt|ceil|floor|round)'; // Allowed PHP functions $operators = '[+\/*\^%-]'; // Allowed math operators $regexp = '/^(('.$number.'|'.$functions.'\s*\((?1)+\)|\((?1)+\))(?:'.$operators.'(?1))?)+$/'; // Final regexp, heavily using recursive patterns if (preg_match($regexp, $equation)) { $equation = preg_replace('!pi|π!', 'pi()', $equation); // Replace pi with pi function echo "$equation\n"; eval('$result = '.$equation.';'); } else { $result = false; } return $result; } ?>
