<p>
If you put all this together, you get the source code for a small application. The application defines a parser variables ("<code>a</code>") and adds 
a user defined functions named "<code>MyFunc</code>". When using the parser make sure that you don't forget to catch the <code>Parser::exception_type</code> in your application. It contains detailed information helping you to find syntax errors in your formula.

<h2><a id="idBench"></a>Benchmarks</h2>

<p>
Finally, I'd like to give you some benchmarks. The benchmarking was done on an Intel 
Pentium P-4 with 2.6 GHz, with a version compiled by using MSVC++ 7.1 (Standard edition).
The diagram shows number of <b>evaluations per seconds vs. expression length</b>. 
I compared both the static lib and the dll version with two other parsers that are freely available 
on the net, very fast and have a similar set of features. One of them is a commercial product.
</p>

</p>

<p>
A higher curve means better performance. Expressions were created randomly. They used only <code>sin</code> and <code>cos</code> functions and contained 
multiple variables and constants. In order to smoothen the curves each point represents the value of a
running average over 10 sample expressions.
