# Formula1 ##Simple Mathematical formulas evaluator for PHP If you need to evaluate a formula with basic operators and variables, and - You dont want to use EVAL for obvious security reasons, - You don't want to rely on half the internet as dependancies, but prefer a single self-contained class, - You don't necessarily have the latest PHP version, - You want something readable that you could easily understand and customize, Then you might like Formula1 ! ;-) **Simple usage no variables** $f1 = new Formula1('-45+(41*2)-(6/(3+1))'); echo($f1->compute()); // 35.5 **Simple usage with variables** $f1 = new Formula1('-45+(fourty_one*2)-(6/(three+1))' , ['fourty_one'=>41, 'three'=>3]); echo($f1->compute()); **Funky usage with variables that include formulas themselves (and recusrively)** $f1 = new Formula1('-45+(fourty_one*2)-(6/(three+1))' , ['fourty_one'=>'82/2', 'three'=>'12/four', 'four'=>4]); echo($f1->compute());
