Not particularly short, but fun. Adding parentheses all over the place...
s=>([e,o]=s.split` `,[...o].map(x=>e=e.split(x).join((a+=')')+x+(b+='(')),a=b=''),eval(b+e+a))
###Test cases
let f =
s=>([e,o]=s.split` `,[...o].map(x=>e=e.split(x).join((a+=')')+x+(b+='(')),a=b=''),eval(b+e+a))
console.log(f("6.3*7.8 +-*/")) // 49.14
console.log(f("2.2*3.3+9.9/8.8-1.1 */+-")) // 7.285
console.log(f("2.2*3.3+9.9/8.8-1.1 +*/-")) // 2.2
console.log(f("10/2+5-1 +-/*")) // 1.6666
console.log(f("2147480/90+10*5 +/-*")) // 107374
console.log(f("3*55-5/8/4+1 -/+*")) // 7.6875
###Historical note
A similar method was used in early FORTRAN compilers. Here is a link from archive.org to a relevant article written by Donald E. Knuth in a 1962 book called Computers and automation.
###Examples
Let's consider the expression 2.2*3.3+9.9/8.8-1.1
.
With operator precedence */+-
, it will expand to:
((((2.2)*(3.3)))+(((9.9))/((8.8))))-((((1.1))))
With operator precedence +*/-
, it will now expand to:
((((2.2))*((3.3)+(9.9)))/(((8.8))))-((((1.1))))
Removing all redundant parentheses, we get:
((2.2*3.3)+(9.9/8.8))-1.1 = 7.285
and:
((2.2*(3.3+9.9))/8.8)-1.1 = 2.2
