MetaMath

You're creating a math game. Players will be given math questions in the format "2 + 2".

The string can contain multiple operations in any order such as "2 + 10 * 23 - 10"

You need to determine the correct result to check with the player's answer.

Math.correct?("2 + 2", 4) # true 
Math.correct?("2 + 2", 5) # false
Example Solution
defmodule Math do
  def correct?(equation, player_answer) do
    {result, _bindings} = Code.eval_string(equation)
    result == player_answer
  end
end

Implement the Math module as documented.

defmodule Math do
  @doc """
  Determine if a player's answer matches the result of the math expression in the string.

  iex> Math.correct?("1 + 1", 2)
  true
  iex> Math.correct?("1 + 1", 4)
  false
  iex> Math.correct?("1 - 1", 0)
  true
  iex> Math.correct?("10 + 14 * 4 - 2", 64)
  true
  """
  def correct?(equation, player_answer) do
  end
end
