TinyExpr vs ExprTk
Developers should use TinyExpr when they need to add expression evaluation to C/C++ projects with minimal overhead, such as in embedded devices, configuration files, or calculators meets developers should use exprtk when building applications that need to evaluate mathematical expressions dynamically at runtime, such as scientific computing tools, financial calculators, or configuration-driven systems. Here's our take.
TinyExpr
Developers should use TinyExpr when they need to add expression evaluation to C/C++ projects with minimal overhead, such as in embedded devices, configuration files, or calculators
TinyExpr
Nice PickDevelopers should use TinyExpr when they need to add expression evaluation to C/C++ projects with minimal overhead, such as in embedded devices, configuration files, or calculators
Pros
- +It is ideal for scenarios where linking to large libraries like Lua or JavaScript engines is impractical, offering a fast and portable solution for parsing user-input formulas or dynamic calculations
- +Related to: c-programming, embedded-systems
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
ExprTk
Developers should use ExprTk when building applications that need to evaluate mathematical expressions dynamically at runtime, such as scientific computing tools, financial calculators, or configuration-driven systems
Pros
- +It is particularly valuable in scenarios where formulas are user-defined or loaded from external sources, as it eliminates the need for hard-coded expressions and provides flexibility
- +Related to: c-plus-plus, mathematical-parsing
Cons
- -Specific tradeoffs depend on your use case
The Verdict
Use TinyExpr if: You want it is ideal for scenarios where linking to large libraries like lua or javascript engines is impractical, offering a fast and portable solution for parsing user-input formulas or dynamic calculations and can live with specific tradeoffs depend on your use case.
Use ExprTk if: You prioritize it is particularly valuable in scenarios where formulas are user-defined or loaded from external sources, as it eliminates the need for hard-coded expressions and provides flexibility over what TinyExpr offers.
