Hello,

We are looking for a program or subroutine, preferably Fortran, that can 
take as input an general algebraic equation and the values for the variables 
in the equation, and calculate the result of the equation by substituting 
the variable values.  For instance, the program would take as input:

      X = 1
	Y = 2
 	Z = 3
	R = X + Y * EXP(Z**2)

and the program would return the correct value for R.  

Is there such a beast?
