NAME
    Data::Formula - formulas evaluation and calculation

SYNOPSIS
        my $df = Data::Formula->new(
            formula   => 'var212 - var213 * var314 + var354',
        );
        my $val = $df->calculate(
            var212 => 5,
            var213 => 10,
            var314 => 7,
            var354 => 100
        );
        # 5-(10*7)+100

        my $df = Data::Formula->new(
            variables        => [qw( var212 var213 n274 n294 var314 var334 var354 var374 var394 )],
            formula          => 'var212 - var213 + var314 * (var354 + var394) - 10',
            on_error         => undef,
            on_missing_token => 0,
        );
        my $used_variables = $df->used_variables;
        # [ var212 var213 var314 var354 var394 ]

        my $val = $df->calculate(
            var212 => 5,
            var213 => 10,
            var314 => 2,
            var354 => 3,
            var394 => 9,
        );
        # 5-10+2*(3+9)-10

DESCRIPTION
    evaluate and calulate formulas with variables of the type var212 -
    var213 + var314 * (var354 + var394) - 10

ACCESSORS
  formula
    Formula for calculation. Required.

  on_error
    Sets what should "calculate()" return in case of an error. When division
    by zero happens or unknown tokens are found.

    Can be a scalar value, like for example 0 or "undef", or a code ref that
    will be executed with error message as argument.

    Optional, if not set "calculate()" will throw an exception in case of an
    error.

  on_missing_token
    Sets what should happen when there is a missing/unknown token found in
    formula.

    Can be a scalar value, like fixed number, or a code ref that will be
    executed with token name as argument.

    Optional, if not set "calculate()" will throw an exception with unknown
    tokens.

METHODS
  new()
    Object constructor.

         my $df = Data::Formula->new(
            formula   => 'var212 - var213 * var314 + var354',
         );

  used_variables()
    return array with variables used in formula

  calculate()
    Evaluate formula with values for variables, returns calculated value.

    Will throw expetion on division by zero of unknown variables, unless
    changes by "on_error" or "on_missing_token"
