Quick calculations

You can calculate mathematical expressions while editing text within an e-mail; The Bat! offers you its unique Evaluate command.

Quick calculations are particularly useful with Quick Templates, e.g. to automate eBay auction logistics.

1.	Type a mathematical expression

Select it

3.	Go to Utilities->Evaluate

Beware: If your formula contains spaces or the caret (^) you must select the expression; otherwise your cursor only needs to be within it!

Note: The expression will be replaced by its evaluation result or, if an equals sign (=) appears at the end of it, the result is placed after that.

Operators

Algebraic

+	plus; add
-	minus; subtract
*	multiply
/	divide by
\	modulus
**	power function
<	smaller than
>	greater than
==	is exactly equal to; identical
<=	smaller than or equal to
>=	greater than or equal to

Logic

?	ternary operator; Example: (exp0)?(exp1):(exp2) gives exp1 if exp0 is not zero and exp2 otherwise

Note: that the numbers must be in a strict form without national thousands separators; the decimal point is a dot (.).
