You sure didn't say much about what your formulas look like, but here's
a little parser for what you did show (and a few extras, like * and parens).
#!/usr/bin/perl
# http://perlmonks.org/?node_id=1211295
use strict;
use warnings;
use Data::Dump 'pp';
while(<DATA>)
{
print "\nformula $_";
my %data = qw( a 2 b 3 ); # for testing, set from your other file
pp 'before', \%data;
calc($_, \%data);
pp 'after ', \%data;
}
sub error { die s/\G/ *** Expected @_ -->/r, "\n" }
sub want { /\G\s+/gc; /\G\Q$_[1]\E/gc ? shift : error "'$_[1]'" }
sub calc
{
local $_ = shift;
our $dataref = shift;
expr(0);
pos($_) == length $_ or error 'End of Source';
}
sub expr
{
our $dataref;
/\G\s+/gc;
my $value =
/\G(\w+)\s*=/gc ? do { my $t = $1; $dataref->{$t} = expr(0) } :
/\G(\w+)/gc ? $dataref->{$&} // 0 :
/\G\(/gc ? want expr(0), ')' :
error 'Operand';
$value =
/\G\s+/gc ? $value :
$_[0] <= 1 && /\G\+/gc ? $value + expr(2) :
$_[0] <= 2 && /\G\*/gc ? $value * expr(3) :
return $value while 1;
}
__DATA__
z = a + b
z = a * b
z = a * b + a * b
z = a + b * a + b

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).

or How to display code and escape characters
are good places to start.
