It is good to be cautious. Big thumbs up. But what exactly are you worried
about? Do you think your users might enter something Evil and break their
own system? I'd suggest that's not your problem, and besides, it is hard
to think of anything they could do with eval

Nah, it takes malice and deliberation to damage a system from an eval.

That's not usually how it works.
How it usually works is:
1. Innocent code-monkey writes nifty applet, posts on usenet.
2. Innocent but dull-witted framework manufacturer includes nifty

Hello,
I have a string input from the user, and want to parse it to a number, and
would like
to know how to do it. I would like to be able to accept arithmetic operations,
like:
'5+5'
'(4+3)*2'
'5e3/10**3'
I thought of using eval, which will work, but could lead to bad security
problems
