I think the best answer is to look at the Compute2 module which permits you
to enter a string representing a parameterized expression like:
(%g * 0.25) ^ (%f / 100.0)

, then attach the inputs that are substituted into that expression (here
you'd need a value for the %g and one for the %f), similar to a printf
construct in C. And as already pointed out, you can have up to 21 inputs on
Compute. If you need more, sequentially attach Computes to each other to
generate partial results. So the %g value above could be the output of a
very complex prior Compute, for example.
