The mathparse library is a Python module designed to evaluate mathematical equations contained in strings.
Here are a few examples:
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
pip install mathparse
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.
See release notes for changes.
