Answer 1

I created the ExpressionEvaluatorCs Nuget package inspired by mar.k's answer and also added the option to specify return type.

Sample code

// Returns object 6
object result1 = ExpressionEvaluator.Evaluate("(1 + 2) * 2");

// Returns int 6
int result1 = ExpressionEvaluator.Evaluate("(1 + 2) * 2");
