Calculation lisp -help
« on: January 15, 2022, 03:09:23 PM »
Hi is possible to write a lisp to calculate a sigle text (this text must be anythig with numbers )

 for examle

Code: [Select]
E1 = (1/2 x 59.328 x 102.361) + (1/2 x 16.672 x 85.953) = 3752.93 sq.m

or

E= 3036.410 + 716.521 = 3752.93 sq.m


Select the text

Code: [Select]
E1 = (1/2 x 59.328 x 102.361) + (1/2 x 16.672 x 85.953) =


and insert the calculation.

Wouldn't you just use a table for that need?

There was a post I think over at Forums/autodesk convert formula to lisp, pretty sure for simple x*y x-y x+y x/y that has been done. I think did something

Anyway for autocad users Cal. Note no Cal in Bricscad

Command Cal
1234*456
562704

Command: CAL
>> Expression: (1/2 * 59.328 * 102.361) + (1/2 * 16.672 * 85.953)


You can save the cal into a variable
Command: (setq m2 (cal "(1/2 * 59.328 * 102.361) + (1/2 * 16.672 * 85.953)"))
3752.94

(setq str "(1/2 * 59.328 * 102.361)+(1/2 * 16.672 * 85.953)")
Command: (vl-cmdf "cal" str)
3752.94091
3752.94091

Post updated, to allow for a string input.

Yes you will need to replace x with * in the text string when you pick the table text, lee-mac.com/stringsubst.html

I try this but is not working

Code - Auto/Visual Lisp: [Select]
  1. (defun c:test ( new old str / inc len )
  2.     (setq len (strlen new)
  3.           inc 0
  4.     )
  5.     (while (setq inc (vl-string-search old str inc))
  6.         (setq str (vl-string-subst new old str inc)
  7.               inc (+ inc len)
  8.         )
  9.     )
  10.     str
  11.   (vl-cmdf "cal" str)
  12. )
  13.  
  14.  

thanks

not sure how to do this with lisp, but you can create an expression in fields I.e. %<\AcExpr (2*4)>%
I think LM has lisp tools to work with fields

The answer is a bit long winded, still need to replace X with *

You need say (setq ans (eval (infix->prefix "2 * 2 * 34")))

I had problems but this works

Code: [Select]
(defun rep ( new old / inc len )
 (setq len (strlen new) inc 0)
 (while (setq inc (vl-string-search old str inc))
 (setq str (vl-string-subst new old str inc))
 (setq inc (+ inc len))
 )
)

(setq str "2+(3x6/4)")
(rep "*" "x")
(princ str)
(vl-cmdf "cal" str)
