Can you evaluate a math expression on the fly in Gamesalad by using values from the tables.

I need Gamesalad to effectively turn a string into a mathematical expression and calculate it using the rules of PEMDAS/BIDMAS/BODMAS (depending on where you live in the world)
e.g. on Row 1 if I had
Column 1 = "18", Column 2 = "-", Column 3 = "4", Column 4 = "*", Column 5 = "2", Column 6 = "+", Column 7 = "1"

SO I want to calculate "18 - 4 * 2 + 1", which should equal 11. Is this possible. I can't seem to figure out if it is possible.

You should be able to do that no problem.
