ANOTHER WAY TO SUPPORT MY WORK IS BY PURCHASING MY BOOK, CUSTOMER FIRST, VALUE NEXT.

THANK YOU FOR SUPPORTING MY WORK!

The tutorial consists of more than 200 live examples from 50 sections given separately for JAVA, C# and C++. Each of the examples can be copied and run on your own environment. In addition, mXparser provides an extensive collection of over 500 built-in math functions, expressions and symbols. Familiarize yourself with the scope and the syntax. Live testing is the best way to learn. Good luck! 🙂

Below is the code for JAVA, C# (the code for C# is almost identical) and C++. To copy the code, double-click inside the frame.

Case 1: Fraction (proper) as Number Literal

Java/C# code

// JAVA: import org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser.*;
// C#: using org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser;
// ...
Expression e = new Expression("1_2");

mXparser.consolePrintln(e.getExpressionString() + " = " + e.calculate());

C++ code

#include "org/mariuszgromada/math/mxparser.hpp"
// ...
ExpressionPtr e = new_Expression("1_2");

mXparser::consolePrintln(e->getExpressionString() + " = " + e->calculate());

Code result

[mXparser-v.5.2.1] 1_2 = 0.5

Case 2: Improper Fraction as Number Literal

Java/C# code

// JAVA: import org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser.*;
// C#: using org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser;
// ...
Expression e = new Expression("-6_5");

mXparser.consolePrintln(e.getExpressionString() + " = " + e.calculate());

C++ code

#include "org/mariuszgromada/math/mxparser.hpp"
// ...
ExpressionPtr e = new_Expression("-6_5");

mXparser::consolePrintln(e->getExpressionString() + " = " + e->calculate());

Code result

[mXparser-v.5.2.1] -6_5 = -1.2

Case 3: Fraction (Mixed Number) as Number Literal

Java/C# code

// JAVA: import org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser.*;
// C#: using org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser;
// ...
Expression e = new Expression("2_3_5");

mXparser.consolePrintln(e.getExpressionString() + " = " + e.calculate());

C++ code

#include "org/mariuszgromada/math/mxparser.hpp"
// ...
ExpressionPtr e = new_Expression("2_3_5");

mXparser::consolePrintln(e->getExpressionString() + " = " + e->calculate());

Code result

[mXparser-v.5.2.1] 2_3_5 = 2.6

Case 4: Fraction (Mixed Numer) and Improper Fraction in one Number Literal

Java/C# code

// JAVA: import org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser.*;
// C#: using org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser;
// ...
Expression e = new Expression("2_12_5");

mXparser.consolePrintln(e.getExpressionString() + " = " + e.calculate());

C++ code

#include "org/mariuszgromada/math/mxparser.hpp"
// ...
ExpressionPtr e = new_Expression("2_12_5");

mXparser::consolePrintln(e->getExpressionString() + " = " + e->calculate());

Code result

[mXparser-v.5.2.1] 2_12_5 = 4.4

Case 5: Operations on Fractions

Java/C# code

// JAVA: import org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser.*;
// C#: using org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser;
// ...
Expression e = new Expression("1_2-6_5*2_3_5/2_12_5");

mXparser.consolePrintln(e.getExpressionString() + " = " + e.calculate());

C++ code

#include "org/mariuszgromada/math/mxparser.hpp"
// ...
ExpressionPtr e = new_Expression("1_2-6_5*2_3_5/2_12_5");

mXparser::consolePrintln(e->getExpressionString() + " = " + e->calculate());

Code result

[mXparser-v.5.2.1] 1_2-6_5*2_3_5/2_12_5 = -0.2090909090909091

Case 6: Represent double as Fraction

Java/C# code

// JAVA: import org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser.*;
// C#: using org.mariuszgromada.math.mxparser;
// ...
Expression e = new Expression("1_2-6_5*2_3_5/2_12_5");
double resultAsDouble = e.calculate();
String resultAsFraction = mXparser.toFractionString(resultAsDouble);

mXparser.consolePrintln(e.getExpressionString() + " = " + resultAsFraction);

C++ code

#include "org/mariuszgromada/math/mxparser.hpp"
// ...
ExpressionPtr e = new_Expression("1_2-6_5*2_3_5/2_12_5");
double resultAsDouble = e->calculate();
StringPtr resultAsFraction = mXparser::toFractionString(resultAsDouble);

mXparser::consolePrintln(e->getExpressionString() + " = " + resultAsFraction);

Code result

[mXparser-v.5.2.1] 1_2-6_5*2_3_5/2_12_5 = -23/110
