Hi,

a) ("sqrt(2) * log(Pi)") is not plain english and 
Mathematica will only
   understand Sqrt[2]*Log[Pi]
b) Mathematica is an interpreter not a library, so 
you need
   always the Mathematica kernel and an 
installation of Mathematica
c) you can call any function of the Mathematica 
kernel at runtime
   but you must launch a kernel and send the data 
via .NET/Link

Regards
  Jens
