function _locale_import_parse_arithmetic

Parses and sanitizes an arithmetic formula into a PHP expression

While parsing, we ensure, that the operators have the right precedence and associativity.

Parameters

$string: A string containing the arithmetic formula.

Return value

The PHP version of the formula.
