Dear guys!

You helped me a lot before, and now I have a new question, for whose know the anwer. I want to make a script, which helps to calculate (and I found a lot of script which can calculate) BUT (!) Is there anyway to make one, which gets the information from another partner (in chat window) and gives the solution at the same chat window?

For example: Peter says: - 5+5*2=?
     (My script)  I say: The solution is 20.

Thanks for the answers before!

can i just ask you to clarify whether you want the script to give the correct answer? or whether you'd like the wrong answer given ala your example

plus i see little use for such things, the user can just use windows built in calculator

Ohh i misswrote I would like to give the script the correct answer
If anyone have idea about how to script this plz share with us Ty

Welcome to JScript. There is a function called eval(). Carry on my wayward son!

If anyone can script me this, just write here! Thanks

Why dont you try?

All you need to do is code something that would say look for a remote command like !calc then process the equation after using eval(). Simple

My only problem is, I cant programming well in msn scripting. I have read the handbook of this scripting, but it just say, which function what does. But how can I write a simple calculator, it doesn't say... so i am stupid about it.

I already told you. You don't have to reinvent the wheel you can use the eval() function which will evaluate a mathematical expression.

Here is a good sample, this calculator can give solution for everything.

Can anybody write into the script, to work it, how i would like? (My contact have to gives the question, and not me. For example: Peter says: 1+1?, and my chat window gives the answer for him.)

Seriously it isn't hard to do if you take the time to learn.

You have the following:

js code:

---

function OnEvent_ChatWndReceiveMessage(pChatWnd, sOrigin, nMessage, nMessageKind) {

}

---

You can check if the command is !calc by doing something like this:

js code:

---

if (nMessage.indexOf('!calc') === 0) {
    /* the above if statement checks if the beginning of the message
        is !calc.
    */
}

---

To get the equation you can do something like this:

js code:

---

nMessage.substr(6);

---

Then research how to use eval() or figure out how the script does it.
