Calculator on line

A little suggestion for Notepad++,
If notepad++ can do ontime calculation of selected numbers, That would be Amazing !!
for example if I selected a simple line of text like :
250+150+100+500
The result of the calculation will show in status bar…
(If possible)And,
Thanks for the Amazing software Notepad++

Though I think they’re both 32-bit only.
You can use NppExec with a simple “script”:
::= SET LOCAL ANS ~ $(ARGV) ECHO $(ANS)Then:
Cheers.

=at the end and select the text of the “equation” in Notepad++ to obtain:
Press Ctrl+c to copy it to the clipboard.
Go to the Run menu and choose Run… and specify something similar to this:
Press the Run button.
When Calculator starts, press Ctrl+v; results:
Save the Run menu entry and bind it to a keycombo if you do this sort of thing frequently.
EDIT: Not sure why I didn’t use your exact numbers in the example! :-)

Hello @monu-kashyap, @Michael-vincent, @alan-kilborn, and All,
Here is an other solution which uses a batch file and the
DOScommandset /a-
Open a new N++ tab (
Ctrl + N) -
Run the menu command
Encoding > Convert to ANSI -
Select all the batch file contents, below, and copy them in this new empty file
-
Save it, in the system folder
C:\Windows\System32, ascal.bat

Close and re-start Notepad++
-
Make a normal selection of that example line
"-9 +3" 011*9 "17|22" "12<<5-1" "v=r*=4" (0xba+v)/6 "17&22" "17^22" -
Execute the menu command
Run > Multiple calculations
Et voilà !!
Notes :
-
Once the results read and, possibly copied in the clipboard, just hit any key to close the
MULTIPLE calculationswindow -
If you don’t like the color of the
DOSconsole, just change the parameters of thecolorcommand or delete it, in thebatchfile ! -
To copy the results to the clipboard :
-
Click anywhere, in that
DOSwindow, with the right mouse button and choose theSelectoption -
Now, by clicking and moving around the pointer you should define a rectangular block, in the same way as a rectangular N++ selection
-
Hit the
Enterkey to copy the contents of this block in the clipboard -
Paste these contents anywhere, in Notepad++ !
-
-
Any selection must contain an even number of double quotes, if any. For instance, the selection
3+4 "5 - 9" 3*5is correct, where as the selection of3+4 "5 - 9 3*5or3+4 "5 - 9are incorrect ! -
Note that a single
shift,logical bitwiseandassignationoperation, as well as any expression containing space chars, needs to be surrounded with double quotes -
Remark that the variable
ralways contains the result of the last performed operation !
Just test it. I hope you’ll like it !
Best Regards,
guy038
P.S. :
I finally don’t think that the conversion to
ANSIis needed, as no character of this batch file is over\x{007f}, anyway ! -
