I am looking for something similar to ToExpression
<http://reference.wolfram.com/mathematica/ref/ToExpression.html> that is
available in Mathematica. I just want to convert a string to an
expression, and evaluate the expression. As a first pass, my strings
will include only numbers and arithmetic operators, and not even
parentheses.
If I need to write it, please point me in the direction of the
appropriate pre-defined modules/definitions which I should use.
