``parse()``
===========

``parse`` method returns an array of operation objects for RPN stack machine.
Example:

.. code-block:: php

    <?php

    use Arokettu\ArithmeticParser\Operation\BinaryOperator;
    use Arokettu\ArithmeticParser\Operation\Number;
    use Arokettu\ArithmeticParser\Operation\Variable;
    use Arokettu\ArithmeticParser\Parser;

    $parser = new Parser();

    $rpn = $parser->parse('x + 3 * y')->operations; // rpn is x 3 y * +

    $rpn == [
        new Variable('x'),
        new Number(3),
        new Variable('y'),
        new BinaryOperator('*'),
        new BinaryOperator('+'),
    ]; // true

    var_dump($rpn->asString()); // "x 3 y * +"
