Calculator Popular! (More than 5000 hits)

Version: 3.3.7

by: zeroIndex [More]

--------- Calculator -----------

The text used in the Chat section of the calculator can handle non standard and standard symbols to achieve your goal: Addition: 'a' or '+', Subtraction: 's' or '-', Multiplication: 'm', 'x', or '*', and Division: 'd' or '/'. I added the extra symbols because its much easier to type m or a than search for the proper symbol.

This calculator uses the chat box with the command /calc.
An example: /calc 1+10-4/2*6
You can also use parenthesis for deeper calculations: /calc (12-3)(4/2)
An example of easy symbol input: /calc 1a2m3d2s1

You can calculate using your answer instead of having to type in your answer manually.
You can use the keywords " Answer, answer, Ans or ans " in the chat input.

Like so:
/calc answer + 2
/calc ans + 2

This works with the use of the easy input symbols as well.
/calc ans m 2 a 3
/calc answer m 2 a 3

You don't have to worry about spaces, just the order of operations.

There is also a UI for those of you who would prefer to click for your results

You can set a keybind to allow for a quick open/close of the calculator UI or you can use:
/calc open
/calc close
/calc

There are some options to customize the colors of the calculator to better fit your taste.
There is an option to add the answer from the UI to the chat box. In case you want to look back over your previous numbers or turn it off if its too intrusive.

Please see the attached pictures as they show examples of how the calculator works and what it looks like.

I was tired of tabbing out or looking for my phone when I had to use a calculator so I put this addon together. If you are a seller or if you like to crunch numbers for builds this addon will save you some grief and time. Check it out and feel free to ask if you have any questions, any feed back will be appreciated.

This addon depends on LibAddonMenu if you dont have that library you can find it here https://www.esoui.com/downloads/info7-LibAddonMenu.html add it to your addon folder just like any other addon.

Fixed an error that was occurring due to changes in the chat system.

and 'm' or 'x' instead of '*'
and 'd' instead of '/'
and 's' instead of '-'

Options were added to be able to send the answer from the UI input into the chat tab in case you want to look back over previous numbers.

Why don't you just make the UI behave like a real calculator by adding brackets and just showing whatever you enter, pressing = will then solve it, as long as the syntax was correct. Would be much more useful that way if you could just enter stuff like (x+y)*(z-w).

Edit: You also haven't defined LAM2 used on line 146, that throws an error. You need:

Lua Code:

local LAM2 = LibStub("LibAddonMenu-2.0")

Another thing:

Lua Code:

function CalcHandleMultipleEntryOperator(value, valueTwo, operator)
    
   [snip]
 
    --I feel like since this stuff is all in the same file i dont
    -- need to pass anything in or return anything
    --so this is prob pointless, but it works.. so okay
   return value 
end

If your function is used to fill a value, like you do here

Lua Code:

value =  CalcHandleMultipleEntryOperator(value, valueTwo, operator)

you need to return something, whatever you return is what "value" is set to. So it's not pointless

Edit: Oh wait, value is defined localy for the whole file, but then you can just call the funtion and really don't need the return.

Lua Code:

CalcHandleMultipleEntryOperator(value, valueTwo, operator)

instead of

Lua Code:

value =  CalcHandleMultipleEntryOperator(value, valueTwo, operator)

Edit: And the last thing for now

Why not remove the "Button" from all buttons and only leave the number or symbol? If you don't want them to be at the top of the button you can center them by adding

verticalAlignment="CENTER"

and then make it bigger by using a bigger font, you can use any size you want by changing the number, e.g.

Code:

font="$(BOLD_FONT)|30|soft-shadow-thin"

Thank you for the input. I have updated the description in hopes to help clarify things up a bit. I also posted a picture of how it works. I updated the addon because the input of decimals was not working however the output was fine. I missed that :/
