[[Category:Functions]]

{{Function|eval(<object>,<attribute>)}}
{{Function|eval(<string>)}}

The first form of the eval function works exactly like the get_eval function, but takes the object and attribute in two separate arguments instead of an obj/attr pair. It is mainly used for compatibility with PennMUSH 1.50. The second form simply evaluates <string>. This is normally done when a function is called, however, it is useful in evaluating %q and %v substitutions.
