Oracle eval() function?

From: <thycotic_at_my-deja.com>

Does anybody know how to get Oracle to evaluate a string as an expression in PL/SQL?
Something similar to the eval functions of VB, JavaScript and Perl. e.g. eval("5+2*(3+200)/2")
Not having to write a custom function would be preferable... TIA,
J
