Evaluate a scientific math expression and return the numeric result (12 significant digits). Supports + - * / ^ (or **), parentheses, n!, π (or pi), e, and the functions sin, cos, tan, asin, acos, atan, log (base 10), ln, sqrt (or √), abs, exp. Trigonometry in radians or degrees. Uses a safe parser — no code execution.
