在 JavaScript 中将字符串作为数学表达式求值

Somebody has to parse that string. If it's not the interpreter (via eval) then it'll need to be you, writing a parsing routine to extract numbers, operators, and anything else you want to support in a mathematical expression.

So, no, there isn't any (simple) way without eval. If you're concerned about security (because the input you're parsing isn't from a source you control), maybe you can check the input's format (via a whitelist regex filter) before passing it to eval?

You can do + or - easily:

function addbits(s) {
var total = 0,
s = s.match(/[+\-]*(\.\d+|\d+(\.\d+)?)/g) || [];
      

while (s.length) {
total += parseFloat(s.shift());
}
return total;
}


var string = '1+23+4+5-30';
console.log(
addbits(string)
)

More complicated math makes eval more attractive- and certainly simpler to write.

I've eventually gone for this solution, which works for summing positive and negative integers (and with a little modification to the regex will work for decimals too):

function sum(string) {
return (string.match(/^(-?\d+)(\+-?\d+)*$/)) ? string.split('+').stringSum() : NaN;
}


Array.prototype.stringSum = function() {
var sum = 0;
for(var k=0, kl=this.length;k<kl;k++)
{
sum += +this[k];
}
return sum;
}

I'm not sure if it's faster than eval(), but as I have to carry out the operation lots of times I'm far more comfortable runing this script than creating loads of instances of the javascript compiler

I've recently done this in C# (no Eval() for us...) by evaluating the expression in Reverse Polish Notation (that's the easy bit). The hard part is actually parsing the string and turning it into Reverse Polish Notation. I used the Shunting Yard algorithm, as there's a great example on Wikipedia and pseudocode. I found it really simple to implement both and I'd recommend this if you haven't already found a solution or are looking for alternatives.

You can use the JavaScript Expression Evaluator library, which allows you to do stuff like:

Parser.evaluate("2 ^ x", { x: 3 });

Or mathjs, which allows stuff like:

math.eval('sin(45 deg) ^ 2');

I ended up choosing mathjs for one of my projects.

This is a little function I threw together just now to solve this issue - it builds the expression by analyzing the string one character at a time (it's actually pretty quick though). This will take any mathematical expression (limited to +,-,*,/ operators only) and return the result. It can handle negative values and unlimited number operations as well.

The only "to do" left is to make sure it calculates * & / before + & -. Will add that functionality later, but for now this does what I need...

/**
* Evaluate a mathematical expression (as a string) and return the result
* @param {String} expr A mathematical expression
* @returns {Decimal} Result of the mathematical expression
* @example
*    // Returns -81.4600
*    expr("10.04+9.5-1+-100");
*/
function expr (expr) {


var chars = expr.split("");
var n = [], op = [], index = 0, oplast = true;


n[index] = "";


// Parse the expression
for (var c = 0; c < chars.length; c++) {


if (isNaN(parseInt(chars[c])) && chars[c] !== "." && !oplast) {
op[index] = chars[c];
index++;
n[index] = "";
oplast = true;
} else {
n[index] += chars[c];
oplast = false;
}
}


// Calculate the expression
expr = parseFloat(n[0]);
for (var o = 0; o < op.length; o++) {
var num = parseFloat(n[o + 1]);
switch (op[o]) {
case "+":
expr = expr + num;
break;
case "-":
expr = expr - num;
break;
case "*":
expr = expr * num;
break;
case "/":
expr = expr / num;
break;
}
}


return expr;
}

I went looking for JavaScript libraries for evaluating mathematical expressions, and found these two promising candidates:

• JavaScript Expression Evaluator: Smaller and hopefully more light-weight. Allows algebraic expressions, substitutions and a number of functions.

• mathjs: Allows complex numbers, matrices and units as well. Built to be used by both in-browser JavaScript and Node.js.

I created BigEval for the same purpose.
In solving expressions, it performs exactly same as Eval() and supports operators like %, ^, &, ** (power) and ! (factorial). You are also allowed to use functions and constants (or say variables) inside the expression. The expression is solved in PEMDAS order which is common in programming languages including JavaScript.

var Obj = new BigEval();
var result = Obj.exec("5! + 6.6e3 * (PI + E)"); // 38795.17158152233
var result2 = Obj.exec("sin(45 * deg)**2 + cos(pi / 4)**2"); // 1
var result3 = Obj.exec("0 & -7 ^ -7 - 0%1 + 6%2"); //-7

It can also be made to use those Big Number libraries for arithmetic in case you are dealing with numbers with arbitrary precision.

Try nerdamer

var result = nerdamer('12+2+PI').evaluate();
document.getElementById('text').innerHTML = result.text();

<script src="http://nerdamer.com/js/nerdamer.core.js"></script>
<div id="text"></div>

Try AutoCalculator https://github.com/JavscriptLab/autocalculate Calculate Inputs value and Output By using selector expressions

Just add an attribute for your output input like data-ac="(#firstinput+#secondinput)"

No Need of any initialization just add data-ac attribute only. It will find out dynamically added elements automatically

FOr add 'Rs' with Output just add inside curly bracket data-ac="{Rs}(#firstinput+#secondinput)"

An alternative to the excellent answer by @kennebec, using a shorter regular expression and allowing spaces between operators

function addbits(s) {
var total = 0;
s = s.replace(/\s/g, '').match(/[+\-]?([0-9\.\s]+)/g) || [];
while(s.length) total += parseFloat(s.shift());
return total;
}

Use it like

addbits('5 + 30 - 25.1 + 11');

Update

Here's a more optimised version

function addbits(s) {
return (s.replace(/\s/g, '').match(/[+\-]?([0-9\.]+)/g) || [])
.reduce(function(sum, value) {
return parseFloat(sum) + parseFloat(value);
});
}

I believe that parseInt and ES6 can be helpful in this situation

let func = (str) => {
let arr = str.split("");
return `${Number(arr[0]) + parseInt(arr[1] + Number(arr[2]))}`
};


console.log(func("1+1"));

The main thing here is that parseInt parses the number with the operator. Code can be modified to the corresponding needs.

Here is an algorithmic solution similar to jMichael's that loops through the expression character by character and progressively tracks left/operator/right. The function accumulates the result after each turn it finds an operator character. This version only supports '+' and '-' operators but is written to be extended with other operators. Note: we set 'currOp' to '+' before looping because we assume the expression starts with a positive float. In fact, overall I'm making the assumption that input is similar to what would come from a calculator.

function calculate(exp) {
const opMap = {
'+': (a, b) => { return parseFloat(a) + parseFloat(b) },
'-': (a, b) => { return parseFloat(a) - parseFloat(b) },
};
const opList = Object.keys(opMap);


let acc = 0;
let next = '';
let currOp = '+';


for (let char of exp) {
if (opList.includes(char)) {
acc = opMap[currOp](acc, next);
currOp = char;
next = '';
} else {
next += char;
}
}


return currOp === '+' ? acc + parseFloat(next) : acc - parseFloat(next);
}

const operatorToFunction = {
"+": (num1, num2) => +num1 + +num2,
"-": (num1, num2) => +num1 - +num2,
"*": (num1, num2) => +num1 * +num2,
"/": (num1, num2) => +num1 / +num2
}


const findOperator = (str) => {
const [operator] = str.split("").filter((ch) => ["+", "-", "*", "/"].includes(ch))
return operator;
}


const executeOperation = (str) => {
const operationStr = str.replace(/[ ]/g, "");
const operator = findOperator(operationStr);
const [num1, num2] = operationStr.split(operator)
return operatorToFunction[operator](num1, num2);
};


const addition = executeOperation('1 + 1'); // ans is 2
const subtraction = executeOperation('4 - 1'); // ans is 3
const multiplication = executeOperation('2 * 5'); // ans is 10
const division = executeOperation('16 / 4'); // ans is 4

You could use a for loop to check if the string contains any invalid characters and then use a try...catch with eval to check if the calculation throws an error like eval("2++") would.

function evaluateMath(str) {
for (var i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
if (isNaN(str[i]) && !['+', '-', '/', '*', '%', '**'].includes(str[i])) {
return NaN;
}
}
  

  

try {
return eval(str)
} catch (e) {
if (e.name !== 'SyntaxError') throw e
return NaN;
}
}


console.log(evaluateMath('2 + 6'))

or instead of a function, you could set Math.eval

Math.eval = function(str) {
for (var i = 0; i < str.length; i++) {
if (isNaN(str[i]) && !['+', '-', '/', '*', '%', '**'].includes(str[i])) {
return NaN;
}
}
  

  

try {
return eval(str)
} catch (e) {
if (e.name !== 'SyntaxError') throw e
return NaN;
}
}


console.log(Math.eval('2 + 6'))

Simple and elegant with Function()

function parse(str) {
return Function(`'use strict'; return (${str})`)()
}


document.write( "1+2+3", '=' , parse("1+2+3"), '<br>');
document.write( "1 + 2 * 3", '=' , parse("1 + 2 * 3"), '<br>');

eval was far too slow for me. So I developed an StringMathEvaluator(SME), that follows the order of operations and works for all arithmetic equations containing the following:

• Integers
• Decimals
• Mathematical Operators: +-*/
• Preferential Perenthesis: $operator ($expression) $operator
• Variables: If and only if you define a global and/or local scope.
  • Format: [a-zA-Z][a-zA-Z0-9]*
  • Nest Variable Operator: $var1.$var2
  • Function Parenthesis: $functionId(...$commaSepArgs)
  • Array Brackets: $arrayId[index]
• (Ignores Spaces)

Speed Test Results: (Ran within chromium browser)

                                      ~(80 - 99)% faster with reasonable expression complexity.

Based on Aniket Kudale's parse

To add context variables to the expression

function parseExpr(str: string, params: any) {
const names = Object.keys(params);
const vals = Object.values(params);
return Function(...names, `'use strict'; return (${str})`)(...vals);
}

example

> parseExpr('age > 50? x : x/2', {x: 40, age: 46})
20


> parseExpr('age > 50? x : x/2', {x: 40, age: 60})
40

The best way and easiest way is to use math.js library. Here some example code demonstrating how to use the library. Click here to fiddle around.

// functions and constants
math.round(math.e, 3)                // 2.718
math.atan2(3, -3) / math.pi          // 0.75
math.log(10000, 10)                  // 4
math.sqrt(-4)                        // 2i
math.derivative('x^2 + x', 'x')      // 2*x+1
math.pow([[-1, 2], [3, 1]], 2)
// [[7, 0], [0, 7]]


// expressions
math.evaluate('1.2 * (2 + 4.5)')     // 7.8
math.evaluate('12.7 cm to inch')     // 5 inch
math.evaluate('sin(45 deg) ^ 2')     // 0.5
math.evaluate('9 / 3 + 2i')          // 3 + 2i
math.evaluate('det([-1, 2; 3, 1])')  // -7


// chaining
math.chain(3)
.add(4)
.multiply(2)
.done() // 14

I made a small function to parse a math expression, containing +,/,-,*. I used if statements I think switch cases will be better. Firstly I separated the string into the operator and its numbers convert then from string to float then iterate through while performing the operation.

 const evaluate=(mathExpStr) => {
mathExpStr.replace(/[+-\/*]$/, "");
let regExp = /\d+/g;
let valueArr = (mathExpStr.match(regExp) || []).map((val) =>
Number.parseFloat(val)
);
let operatorArr = mathExpStr.match(/[+-\/*]/g) || [];
return converter(valueArr, operatorArr)
}


const converter = (arr,operators)=>{
let arr2=[...arr]
for(let i=0;i<arr.length;i++){
let o;
if(arr2.length<2){return arr2[0]}
if(operators[i]=="+"){
o=arr2[0]+arr2[1]
arr2.splice(0, 2, o)
console.log(o,arr2, operators[i])
}
if(operators[i]=="-"){
o=arr2[0]-arr2[1]
arr2.splice(0,2, o)
console.log(o,arr2, operators[i])
}
if(operators[i]=="*"){
o=arr2[0]*arr2[1]
arr2.splice(0,2,o)
console.log(o,arr2, operators[i])
}
if(operators[i]=="/"){
o=arr2[0]/arr2[1]
arr2.splice(0,2, o)
console.log(o,arr2, operators[i])
}
}
}
// console.log(converter(valueArr, operatorArr))
console.log(evaluate("1+3+5+6-4*2/4"))

Adding a simple version for +, -, / and *, taking float numbers in consideration. Inspired by @kennebec.

function addbits(s) {
let total = 0;
s = s.match(/[+\-\*\/]*(\.\d+|\d+(\.\d+)?)/g) || [];
      

while (s.length) {
const nv = s.shift();
if (nv.startsWith('/')) {
total /= parseFloat(nv.substring(1));
} else if (nv.startsWith('*')) {
total *= parseFloat(nv.substring(1));
} else {
total += parseFloat(nv);
}
}
return total;
}


var string = '-2*3.5';
console.log(
addbits(string)
)

You can try using the function constructor:

function parse(data) {
return new Function(` return ${data}`)();
}




parse('1+1')

You can also use the eval function

function parseExp(exp){
eval(`const ans = ${exp}`);
return ans;
}

The eval function just simply converts the string into an executable javascript expression, variables declared can also be used outside the eval string.

This is the official documentation: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/JavaScript/Reference/Global_Objects/eval

This is not completely mine, but this answer is still worth being here.
it's a synthesis between kennebec's answer
and the one here: Check if string is a mathematical expression in JavaScript

const rgx = /(?:(?:^|[-+_*/])(?:\s*-?\d+(\.\d+)?(?:[eE][+-]?\d+)?\s*))+$/;


function parse(str)
{
if (!rgx.test(str)) return 'invalid entry!'
return Function(`'use strict'; return (${str})`)()
}


document.write( "1+2+3", ' = ' , parse("1+2+3"), '<br>');
document.write( "1 + 2 * 3", ' = ' , parse("1 + 2 * 3"), '<br>');


document.write( "'alert(\"hello\")'", ' = ' , parse('alert("hello")'), '<br>');

My own algorithm to convert String data type to an Integer data type in JavaScript

Solution:

let toInt = (string) => string - [];

Usage

let myString = "1024";


console.log(toInt(myString));
