Calculate string value in javascript, not using eval
Is there a way to calculate a formula stored in a string in JavaScript without using eval()
?
Normally I would do something like
var apa = "12/5*9+9.4*2";
console.log(eval(apa));
So, does an开发者_Go百科yone know about alternatives to eval()
?
Mhh, you could use the Function()
constructor:
function evil(fn) {
return new Function('return ' + fn)();
}
console.log(evil('12/5*9+9.4*2')); // => 40.4
There's nothing wrong with eval, especially for cases like this. You can sanitize the string with a regex first to be safe:
// strip anything other than digits, (), -+/* and .
var str = "12/5*9+9.4*2".replace(/[^-()\d/*+.]/g, '');
console.log(eval(str));
Eval was built for conditions like this.
If you wanted another method, you'd have to use a pure Javascript implementation of the exact thing eval is going to do.
- The hard part is not the parsing of numbers and operators
- The hard part is applying order of operation and recursive control
Here's a quick basic example I came up with (updated (2011-06-26): cleaner w/ input boxes).
http://jsfiddle.net/vol7ron/6cdfA/
Note:
- it only handles the basic operators
- it does not check the validity of the numbers (example: divide by zero)
- it has not implemented parenthetical operation
- for all these reasons and more, eval would be a better choice
Edit (2017-05-26) to use SO Snippet:
function calculate(input) {
var f = {
add: '+',
sub: '-',
div: '/',
mlt: '*',
mod: '%',
exp: '^'
};
// Create array for Order of Operation and precedence
f.ooo = [
[
[f.mlt],
[f.div],
[f.mod],
[f.exp]
],
[
[f.add],
[f.sub]
]
];
input = input.replace(/[^0-9%^*\/()\-+.]/g, ''); // clean up unnecessary characters
var output;
for (var i = 0, n = f.ooo.length; i < n; i++) {
// Regular Expression to look for operators between floating numbers or integers
var re = new RegExp('(\\d+\\.?\\d*)([\\' + f.ooo[i].join('\\') + '])(\\d+\\.?\\d*)');
re.lastIndex = 0; // take precautions and reset re starting pos
// Loop while there is still calculation for level of precedence
while (re.test(input)) {
output = _calculate(RegExp.$1, RegExp.$2, RegExp.$3);
if (isNaN(output) || !isFinite(output))
return output; // exit early if not a number
input = input.replace(re, output);
}
}
return output;
function _calculate(a, op, b) {
a = a * 1;
b = b * 1;
switch (op) {
case f.add:
return a + b;
break;
case f.sub:
return a - b;
break;
case f.div:
return a / b;
break;
case f.mlt:
return a * b;
break;
case f.mod:
return a % b;
break;
case f.exp:
return Math.pow(a, b);
break;
default:
null;
}
}
}

This is exactly the place where you should be using eval()
, or you will have to loop through the string and generate the numbers. You will have to use the Number.isNaN()
method to do it.
Here is an implementation of the Shunting-yard algorithm with additional support for unary prefix (e.g. -
) and postfix (e.g. !
) operators, and function (e.g. sqrt()
) notations. More operators/functions can be easily defined with the Calculation.defineOperator
method:
"use strict";
class Calculation {
constructor() {
this._symbols = {};
this.defineOperator("!", this.factorial, "postfix", 6);
this.defineOperator("^", Math.pow, "infix", 5, true);
this.defineOperator("*", this.multiplication, "infix", 4);
this.defineOperator("/", this.division, "infix", 4);
this.defineOperator("+", this.last, "prefix", 3);
this.defineOperator("-", this.negation, "prefix", 3);
this.defineOperator("+", this.addition, "infix", 2);
this.defineOperator("-", this.subtraction, "infix", 2);
this.defineOperator(",", Array.of, "infix", 1);
this.defineOperator("(", this.last, "prefix");
this.defineOperator(")", null, "postfix");
this.defineOperator("min", Math.min);
this.defineOperator("sqrt", Math.sqrt);
}
// Method allowing to extend an instance with more operators and functions:
defineOperator(symbol, f, notation = "func", precedence = 0, rightToLeft = false) {
// Store operators keyed by their symbol/name. Some symbols may represent
// different usages: e.g. "-" can be unary or binary, so they are also
// keyed by their notation (prefix, infix, postfix, func):
if (notation === "func") precedence = 0;
this._symbols[symbol] = Object.assign({}, this._symbols[symbol], {
[notation]: {
symbol, f, notation, precedence, rightToLeft,
argCount: 1 + (notation === "infix")
},
symbol,
regSymbol: symbol.replace(/[\\^$*+?.()|[\]{}]/g, '\\$&')
+ (/\w$/.test(symbol) ? "\\b" : "") // add a break if it's a name
});
}
last(...a) { return a[a.length-1] }
negation(a) { return -a }
addition(a, b) { return a + b }
subtraction(a, b) { return a - b }
multiplication(a, b) { return a * b }
division(a, b) { return a / b }
factorial(a) {
if (a%1 || !(+a>=0)) return NaN
if (a > 170) return Infinity;
let b = 1;
while (a > 1) b *= a--;
return b;
}

If you don't want to use eval you will have to use an existing expression evaluator library.

You can also roll one of your own :)
I spent a couple of hours to implement all the arithmetical rules without using eval()
and finally I published a package on npm string-math. Everything is in the description. Enjoy
This solution also clips whitespaces and checks for duplicating operators
e.g. ' 1+ 2 *2' // 5
but ' 1 + +2* 2 ' // Error
function calcMe(str) {
const noWsStr = str.replace(/\s/g, '');
const operators = noWsStr.replace(/[\d.,]/g, '').split('');
const operands = noWsStr.replace(/[+/%*-]/g, ' ')
.replace(/\,/g, '.')
.split(' ')
.map(parseFloat)
.filter(it => it);
if (operators.length >= operands.length){
throw new Error('Operators qty must be lesser than operands qty')
};
while (operators.includes('*')) {
let opIndex = operators.indexOf('*');
operands.splice(opIndex, 2, operands[opIndex] * operands[opIndex + 1]);
operators.splice(opIndex, 1);
};
while (operators.includes('/')) {
let opIndex = operators.indexOf('/');
operands.splice(opIndex, 2, operands[opIndex] / operands[opIndex + 1]);
operators.splice(opIndex, 1);
};
while (operators.includes('%')) {
let opIndex = operators.indexOf('%');
operands.splice(opIndex, 2, operands[opIndex] % operands[opIndex + 1]);
operators.splice(opIndex, 1);
};
let result = operands[0];
for (let i = 0; i < operators.length; i++) {
operators[i] === '+' ? (result += operands[i + 1]) : (result -= operands[i + 1])
}
return result
}
This shows to be more performant than @vol7ron
's solution.

If you're looking for a syntactical equivalent to eval
, you could use new Function
. There are slight differences regarding scoping, but they mostly behave the same, including exposure to much of the same security risks:
let str = "12/5*9+9.4*2"
let res1 = eval(str)
console.log('res1:', res1)
let res2 = (new Function('return '+str)())
console.log('res2:', res2)
You can't, at most you could do something retort like parsing the numbers and then separating the operations with a switch, and making them. Other than that, I'd use eval in this case.
That would be something like (a real implementation will be somewhat more complex, especially if you consider the use of parenthesis, but you get the idea)
function operate(text) {
var values = text.split("+");
return parseInt(values[0]) + parseInt(values[1]);
}
console.log(operate("9+2"));
Still, I think the best choice you can make is to use eval, given that you're able to trust the source of the string.
There is also an open source implementation on GitHub, evaluator.js, and an NPM package.
From the README: Evaluator.js is a small, zero-dependency module for evaluating mathematical expressions.
All major operations, constants, and methods are supported. Additionally, Evaluator.js intelligently reports invalid syntax, such as a misused operator, missing operand, or mismatched parentheses.
Evaluator.js is used by a desktop calculator application of the same name. See a live demo on the website.
Note : There is no library used in this solution purely hard coded
My solution takes into account of brackets also like 8+6(7(-1))
or 8+6(7(-1))
You can do these operations ^, *, /, +, -
To calculate a string use calculate(tokenize(pieval("8+6(7(-1))").join("")))
function tokenize(s) {
// --- Parse a calculation string into an array of numbers and operators
const r = [];
let token = '';
for (const character of s) {
if ('^*/+-'.indexOf(character) > -1) {
if (token === '' && character === '-') {
token = '-';
} else {
r.push(parseFloat(token), character);
token = '';
}
} else {
token += character;
}
}
if (token !== '') {
r.push(parseFloat(token));
}
return r;
}
function calculate(tokens) {
// --- Perform a calculation expressed as an array of operators and numbers
const operatorPrecedence = [{'^': (a, b) => Math.pow(a, b)},
{'*': (a, b) => a * b, '/': (a, b) => a / b},
{'+': (a, b) => a + b, '-': (a, b) => a - b}];
let operator;
for (const operators of operatorPrecedence) {
const newTokens = [];
for (const token of tokens) {
if (token in operators) {
operator = operators[token];
} else if (operator) {
newTokens[newTokens.length - 1] =
operator(newTokens[newTokens.length - 1], token);
operator = null;
} else {
newTokens.push(token);
}
}
tokens = newTokens;
}
if (tokens.length > 1) {
console.log('Error: unable to resolve calculation');
return tokens;
} else {
return tokens[0];
}
}
function pieval(input) {
let openParenCount = 0;
let myOpenParenIndex = 0;
let myEndParenIndex = 0;
