Editorial Workflows

Evaluate Math Inline

public workflow

Install Workflow

This is a workflow for Editorial, a Markdown and plain text editor for iOS. To download it, you need to view this page on a device that has the app installed.

Description: Evaluates the current selection as a mathematical expression and inserts the result inline with the expression.

Example: Enter "5*(2+3)" (without the quotes), select the expression and run the workflow. It'll append " = 25" directly after the expression and before any text that follows the expression.

This is a variation of the example Evaluate Math workflow provided by Ole Zorn. Thanks Ole. You rock!
