I am in need of a program that will allow a student to enter an equation
in the form 

	>  b = 5
	>  s = 90 
	>  w = 12
	>  x = b^2 + (s^3/w)

The program needs to be able to do all basic math functions.

	* / - + sin() cos() tan() atan() acos() asin() log() sqrt() etc...

I am about to write the program, but if there is one already floating
around I will be grateful for a copy, or a pointer to it. 

The program is to be used as a teaching aid for one of our engineering
courses. I will specialize it to fit the specifications of the course.

Thanks in advance.
