Using FP package to compute sum breaks: FP error: UPN stack is empty!
The problem can be easily fixed by adding extra parentheses in your \AddToTotal
command:
\FPeval\TempTotal{(\Total)+\NewAmount}% <-- extra parentheses around \Total
Without the parentheses, a negative \Total
is expanded as is, giving something like -6000+-1000
where the first expression is interpreted as a subtraction rather than a negative number. fp
then produces an empty stack error because the second operand for that subtraction is missing on the internal stack.
To fix that you have to give it a hint that the negative number is a single atom by putting a pair of parentheses around it. You now correctly get:
That alternative version also seems to work:
\FPeval\TempTotal{0+\Total+\NewAmount}
Not sure why the parsing works differently at the start of the expression than in the middle.
