|
|
* Demonstration of some uses of prompt() and eval().
|
|
*
|
|
* adder() simulates a simple adding machine: starting with sum = 0,
|
|
* each number entered in response to the ? prompt is added to sum
|
|
* and the result displayed. Operation of adder() is ended by
|
|
* entering "end", "exit" or "quit"; "end" returns to the level from
|
|
* which adder() is called, e.g. with:
|
|
*
|
|
* for (;;) adder()
|
|
*
|
|
* entering "end" would start a new edition with sum = 0; "quit" and
|
|
* "exit" return to the top level.
|
|
*
|
|
* Each response to ? is read as
|
|
* a string terminated by a newline; the statements and expressions
|
|
* in this string are compiled and evaluated as in function evaluation;
|
|
* thus the string may include variables, assignments, functions, etc.
|
|
* as in:
|
|
*
|
|
* 2 + 3
|
|
* x = 2 + 3, x^3
|
|
* x^2
|
|
* local x = 2; while (x < 100) x *= 2; x % 100
|
|
* x
|
|
* exp(2, 1e-5)
|
|
* sum
|
|
* print sum^2;
|
|
* 3; print sum^2;
|
|
*
|
|
* (Here the second line creates x as a global variable; the local
|
|
* variable x in the fourth line has no effect on the global x. In
|
|
* the last three lines, sum is the sum of numbers already entered, so
|
|
* the third last line doubles the value of sum. The value returned
|
|
* by "print sum^2;" is the null value, so the second last line adds
|
|
* nothing to sum. The last line returns the value 3, i.e. the last
|
|
* non-null value found for the expressions separated by semicolons,
|
|
* so sum will be increased by 3 after the "print sum^2;" command
|
|
* is executed. xxx The terminating semicolon is essential in the
|
|
* last two lines. A command like eval("print 7;") is acceptable to
|
|
* calc but eval("print 7") causes an exit from calc. xxx)
|
|
*
|
|
* If the value returned is not a number (e.g. the name of a list or matrix,
|
|
* or if the string has syntax errors as in "2 + ", in which case the
|
|
* value returned is an error value), the compile error messages and a
|
|
* request for another number are displayed.
|
|
*
|
|
* Calling showvalues(str) assumes str defines a function of x as in:
|
|
*
|
|
* "sin(x)", "x^2 + 3*x", "exp(x, 1e-5)".
|
|
*
|
|
* Values of the function so defined are returned for values of x
|
|
* entered in reponse to the ? prompt. Operation is terminated by
|
|
* entering "end", "exit" or "quit".
