That's a nice exercise in using Pegged.
Reminds me of another Pegged-based calculator with variables,
more operations, more precision and more permissive license:
http://code.dlang.org/packages/pc
It hasn't been updated in 4 years but still can be built by Dub
automatically, that's how stable D is these days!
From what I can see (documentation appears to be scarce) pc
strived to be more like a Matlab-style program. ArithEval is to
be used as a library to help deal with user input. But the former
definitely supports many more operations, you are right. I guess
it would not hurt to change the license to MIT. Would that
encourage use by the community?
