Hi Jim,
This is about a calculation with potentially hundreds of parameters. I
don't think that parsing the formula to reduce the number of brackets
will be fast enough to make the exercise worthwhile.
I'm building up the formula in a repeat loop, one operator at a time:
1
1*2
1*2+3
etc.
I can leave brackets out when a + or - is added, but I wish I could
leave them all out. I assume a calculation without brackets is faster,
because the symbols between brackets are parsed first.

Not sure about no brackets without multiple puts into vars (which
should add

put ((1*2+3-4)/5)^6
Answer is the same due to brackets, precedence of operators (*
before +) and
left to right calculation (+ before -).
But, I'm curious. How much time do brackets add? It's something I
never
thought of.
