I recently had to build a Silverlight application showing a grid that looked and behaved like Excel as much as possible. One of the things I needed was a small, fast, flexible calculation engine that would allow users to type formulas into grid cells and see the results. I did a quick search and found a couple of nice calculation engines, but unfortunately none fit my needs. Some were a too large, some would not build under Silverlight, some were in C++, some required third party parser DLLs, etc. So I decided to adapt the parser and logic from a script engine I wrote a while ago for a reporting library. This code was stable and solid. All I had to do was extract the pieces I needed, clean them up, and optimize them as much as possible for size and speed.
