Is there an easy way to transform a string to a mathematical expression with vbscript?

For example suppose I have

var1 = "15+28*3+(15.2+2)*2"

I want to return something like

var2 = CDbl(var1) or var2 = 133.4

Which I know it is wrong. But I am wondering if there is an easy solution?

Use Eval to evaluate an expression:

>> s = "15+28*3+(15.2+2)*2"
>> WScript.Echo Eval(s)
>>
133,4
