Expression Parser

Simple expression parser library for unity
Quick Sample
// create context
var context = new ExpresionContext<float>();
// register some variables
context.RegisterVariable("a", () => 1);
context.RegisterVariable("b", () => 2);
context.RegisterVariable("c", () => 3);
var input = "a >= b AND NOT(b) OR (a + b) >= c";
// compile expression
var compiledExpr = FloatExpressionParser.Instance.Compile(input, context, true);
// execute expression
var result = compiledExpr.Invoke();
Create your own ExpressionParser
implementation to support other data types

Variables
Creation of custom variables is supported. Variable name must starts with english letter or underscore. The rest of the variable name may also contains digits.
Functions
Name | Sample | Description |
---|---|---|
NOT | NOT(TRUE) | Returns FALSE if argument is true, otherwise TRUE |
IF | IF(n < 5, 5, n < 25, 25, 50) | Returns the second argument if the first argument is true, returns the fourth argument if the third argument is true, and so on. Otherwise, returns the last argument. Odd number of arguments required |
MIN | MIN(0, 1, ...) | Returns smallest argument |
MAX | MAX(0, 1, ...) | Returns largest argument |
ROUND | ROUND(1.1) | Rounds a number |
CEILING | CEILING(1.1) | Round number up |
FLOOR | FLOOR(1.1) | Rounds number down |
LOG | LOG(8, 2) | Returns the logarithm to base B of number A |
