Abstract
Systems, methods, and software for data calculation frameworks for user applications are provided herein. An exemplary method includes providing functions for use by a calculation engine of the user application, determining that the calculation engine issues a call for evaluation of a nested expression comprising at least a child function embedded in a parent function, and responsively dispatching at least a first evaluation process for a first portion of the nested expression that employs the child function. During evaluation of the nested expression, the method includes indicating to the calculation engine a predetermined result for at least the parent function, and dispatching at least a second evaluation process for a second portion of the nested expression that employs the child result. Responsive to receiving a parent result from the second evaluation process, the method includes indicating the parent result to the calculation engine.
