Hello together

i want to execute different commands that are saved in strings (eg: "d
<- 4+7" and some more complicated things). How can i execute/evaluate
them. I know i could save them to a temp-file a read this with source.
But is there a way without a file in the middle?
I know also the 'assign' command but I think it would only the simply
cases.

thanks and gruess

joerg
