This is a head scratcher for me.
I have an number and a string as follows:
$retail = 14.95; $formula = "/2-2.00";
how do I return the value of the combined values.
For example,
$result = 14.95/2-2.00;
$result then equals 5.47
For anyone interested:
$retail = 14.95; $formula = "/2+2";
$evalstring = "$retail$formula"; eval("\$retail = $evalstring;"); $retail = number_format($retail, 2);
Ta Da
Anyone have a better solution, I am all ears.
