Example

The result of running example/Main.kt:

Enter math expression to calculate: 2 + 2 * 2
Parsed as: 2 plus (2 times 2)
Result: 6

Enter an expression with units to calculate: (1km - 0.5mi) + 2 yd to inches
Parsed as: (((1 Kilometers) minus (0.5 Miles)) plus (2 Yards)).convert(Inches)
Result: 7886.272 Inches

Modules

The library consists of several different modules:

core

Module with all basic types for parsing and calculating. Here you can find ParseContext and CalculateContext as well as functions to launch parsers/calculators.

math

Module with implementation of basic math expressions that any calculator can calculate. This is where you can find logic to calculate numbers combined with basic supported operators ( +, -, *, /). You can implement your own operator, like in this example (% operator).

units

Module with implementation of math expressions with units. It depends on math module heavily and does not do any calculations on its own. There is a logic to support calculation and conversions of units like 1 km + 2, 1km to inches, etc.

example

Module with all the examples you need to know. If something is missing, PRs are welcome.
