Template:Expr
[⧼Purge⧽ Template:Expr]
The {{expr}} mathematical function template evaluates an expression yielding a numeric result (although an undefined or empty string parameter/subparameter evaluates as an empty string), otherwise an error message is returned. The expression may be an anonymous function (similar to, though not quite a lambda expression) using up to eight subparameters, all of which must be yielding real numeric values.
Contents
Usage
-
{{expr|expression}}
or
-
{{expr|anonymous function (using <<<1>>> up to <<<8>>> to refer to up to eight numeric values)|up to eight numeric values separated by semicolons}}
where in either expression or anonymous function we are allowed to use:
- either
log
orln
(whereas in{{#expr: ... }}
one may only useln
for the natural logarithm); -
−
or-
(whereas in{{#expr: ... }}
one may only use-
, i.e. an hyphen, for the minus sign).
Examples
Examples with valid input
Note: an undefined or empty string parameter/subparameter evaluates as an empty string.

Examples using the {{math}} template
The code
- {{math| 0.5 {{-)|u&u}} 3 {{=}} 0.5{{^|0.5{{^|0.5}}}} {{=}} <!-- -->{{expr| 0.5^( 0.5^( 0.5 ) ) }}{{...|ldots}} |&&}}
yields the HTML+CSS formatted
0.5 ⇈ 3 = 0.5 0.5 0.5 = 0.61254732653607…
The code
- {{math| 0.5 {{-)|u&u|tex}} 3 {{=}} 0.5{{^|0.5{{^|0.5|tex}}|tex}} {{=}} <!-- -->{{expr| 0.5^( 0.5^( 0.5 ) ) }}{{...|ldots|tex}} |$$}}
yields the LaTeX formatted

Formatted numbers
This template requires unformatted numbers, it will not recognize formatted numbers, e.g. comma separated, which is by design since formatted numbers will break expression parsers. To remove the formatting from a number, you can wrap the number first in {{formatnum:number|R}}.[1]
Code | Result |

{{expr|1,000.50}} | Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character ",". |
{{expr|{{formatnum:1,000.50|R}}}} | 1000.5 |

Examples with anonymous functions and anonymous subfunctions
The code
: {{expr| <<<1>>>^2 + <<<2>>>^2 | sin <<<3>>> ; cos <<<3>>> ; pi/3 }}
yields
- 1
The code
: {{expr| <<<1>>> * <<<2>>> + <<<1>>> * <<<3>>> + <<<2>>> * <<<3>>> | <<<4>>> + 1 ; <<<4>>>^2 + 1 ; <<<4>>>^3 + 1 ; 5 - 2 }}
yields (<<<1>>> is 4, <<<2>>> is 10, <<<3>>> is 28, so we get 4 * 10 + 4 * 28 + 10 * 28 = 432)
- 432
Anonymous functions that don't work
Code | Result | Comment |
---|---|---|
{{expr| <<<1>>>(<<<2>>>) | cos; pi/3 }} | Expression error: Missing operand for cos. | Since each subparameter is parenthesized, we get (cos)(pi/3). |
{{expr| {{cos|<<<1>>>}} | pi/3 }} | Expression error: Unexpected < operator. | The {{cos}} template is called before <<<1>>> is replaced by pi/3. |
Test
The code
{{expr| {{#replace: {{#replace: <<<1>>> |<< | {{((}} }} | >>| {{))}} }} | << Fibonacci {{!}} <<<2>>> >> ; 10 }}
yields
- Expression error: Unrecognized punctuation character "{".
