Are there any easy way in javascript to transform a mathematical expression from a string to a int. For example, from this:
var a = "5 + 5 - 7";
to this var b = 5 + 5 - 7;
Thank you!

2Like `eval(a)` ? – j08691 Apr 02 '17 at 20:03

1`eval` does this, but with javascript expressions not math ones. For mathematical expressions, you have to write your own parser and interpreter. – Bergi Apr 02 '17 at 20:03

Thank you very much! I didn't know about `eval(a)` but it works perfectly. :) – luisreys Apr 02 '17 at 20:14
