The mathparse library is a Python module designed to evaluate mathematical equations contained in strings.

Here are a few examples:

.. code-block:: python

from mathparse import mathparse

mathparse.parse('50 * (85 / 100)')

42.5

mathparse.parse('one hundred times fifty four', mathparse.codes.ENG)

5400

mathparse.parse('(seven * nine) + 8 - (45 plus two)', language='ENG')

24

Installation

.. code-block:: bash

pip install mathparse

Language support

The language parameter must be set in order to evaluate an equation that uses word operators. The language code should be a valid ISO 639-2_ language code.
