Can someone help me out? I’m looking to auto solve math problems that occur in chat, but I can’t get the numbers to add up in string form and when I try to convert it to a number the output is always 1

here is my current script in the chatfilter

ifmatches(%chatclean%, “Math problem: ([\s\S]+),&problem,1);

#math = (%&problem%);

log(%#math%);

endif

What about Fabric? Id love mc 1.13+ (fabric) (and also please add it to Curseforge)

I have a few questions:

How do I set a variable and check it later?

Like for Javascript it is var name = <whatyoutypehere>

and then you can call it by if (<whatyoutypedhere> == X) { action}

How would this look like in this mod? And what kind of programming language is this? I have a little python and javascript knowledge, but this one seems to be a bit confusing. Thanks for helping me out!

For words, you can use:

&word = test;

if (%&word% == test)

log ("true");

else

log ("false");

endif;

for numbers use:

#number = 100;

This is a late response, but oh well. This does not work because Macro Mod cannot parse equations in string format into integer format in the way you are trying to. You would have to either (A) use a module that provides an evaluation function, of which there is one available in the "utilities" module available here: https://spthiel.github.io/Modules/. If using this module, your code would look like this:

ifmatches(%chatclean%,"Math problem: ([\s\S]+)",&problem,1);
	eval(&answer,"%&problem%");
	log("Answer is %&answer%");
endif;

Although that would not provide a result in integer format. If you needed an integer from that evaluation, you would have to further break down the &answer variable using match or split (as it may contain a decimal value, which Macro Mod cannot support), or if the string is a valid integer (no decimal values) you could explode it into integer format using the pascal := operator, like so:

ifmatches(%chatclean%,"Math problem: ([\s\S]+)",&problem,1);
	eval(&answer,"%&problem%");
	log("Answer is %&answer%");
	ifmatches(%&answer%,"^(\d+)$");
		#answer_int := %&answer%;
		log("Integer format of answer is %#answer_int%.");
	endif;
endif;

If you are not capable of using a module to handle this arithmetic, the alternative would be for you to come up with a way of breaking the equation down into it's parts (BEDMAS/PEMDAS applies), extracting the operators and numbers, then depending on what type of operation is being done, assign a result per-step of the algebra using the integers formed from either regular expressions or pascal (:=) string explosion. This would be pretty complicated, and I am not going to show an example for that because that's going to take me the rest of the evening to write out, lol.

To set variables, you can use standard variable declaration, prepending the '&' sign for strings, the '#' sign for integers, and no prefix for booleans. To make variables global (available after the script context which created or last edited the variable dies, as well as available across different script contexts), you can prepend the '@' sign before whatever other prefix you might use to declare or define the variable. You can apply these same concepts to the "set" function, as well. To check a variable later, depending on the context you are "checking" it in, you simply wrap it in percentage signs to explode it into a string (i.e. to have it spit out in a log statement), or if you are evaluating the content of a variable in a condition, you can forgo the percentage signs. For example:

&local_string = "foo";
#local_integer = 69;
local_boolean = true;

@&global_string = "bar";
@#global_integer = 420;
@global_boolean = true;

set(&local_string,"foo");
set(#local_integer,69);
set(local_boolean,true);

set(@&global_string,"bar");
set(@#global_integer,420);
set(@global_boolean,true);

if(&local_string == "true");
  log("Local string is true (%&local_string%)!");
else;
  log("Local string is not true (%@&global_string%)!");
endif;

if(@&global_string == "true");
  log("Global string is true (%@&global_string%)!");
else;
  log("Global string is not true (%@&global_string%)!");
endif;

if(#local_integer = 69);
  log("Local integer is funny sex number (%#local_integer%)!");
else;
  log("Local integer is not funny sex number (%#local_integer%)!");
endif;

You get the idea... These are all examples of valid variable declaration / definition. As for what language MacroMod is, that is a hard one to answer. Consider it a language of it's own
