Yarer (Yet another (Rusty || Rpn) expression resolver) is a flexible library, written in Rust, for the processing, compilation and evaluation of mathematical expressions using Reverse Polish Notation.
Example of usage of the library:
rust
let exp = "((10 + 5) – 3 * (9 / 3)) + 2";
let mut session = Session::init();
let mut resolver: RpnResolver = session.build_resolver_for(&exp);
println!("The result of {} is {}", exp, resolver.resolve());
All that's needed is to create a new instance of the RpnResolver and hand over the expression to be analysed. The library just returns a variant natural number, or a decimal number if one exists in the expression (i.e '2.1+1') or there's a trigonometric function (i.e. 1/cos(x+1)).
Yarer can handle also variables and functions. Here an example:
```rust let mut session: Session = Session::init(); let mut resolver: RpnResolver = session.buildresolverfor("1/cos(x^2)");
session.set("x",1);
println!("The result is {}", resolver.resolve());
```
and of course, the expression can be re-evaluated if the variable changes.
```rust //... session.set("x",-1); println!("The result is {}", resolver.resolve());
session.set("x",0.001);
println!("The result is {}", resolver.resolve());
//...
```
The result can be simply converted into a i32 or a f64 (if decimal) simply with
```rust let result: Number = resolver.resolve().unwrap();
let int : i32 = i32::from(result); // or let float : f64 = f64::from(result); ```
Yarer can be used also from command line, and behaves in a very similar manner to GNU bc

There are several math functions defined that you can use in your expression. More to come! There are many examples of processed expressions in the integration test file
rust
Sin
Cos
Tan
ASin
ACos
ATan
Ln
Log
Abs
Sqrt
To run it from cargo, just type:
console
cargo run -q --
For logging debug just run with:
console
env RUST_LOG=yarer=debug cargo run -q --
or to build a release from the code:
console
cargo build --release
./target/release/yarer
Besides being stable, Yarer is a work in progress. If you have suggestions for features, or if you find any issues in the code, design, interface, etc, please feel free to share them on our GitHub.
I appreciate very much your feedback!
