fun fact: the windows calculator is open source https://github.com/microsoft/calculator
bc
May I recommend SpeedCrunch
Speedcrunch FTW. I use it all the time.
Ok that does look nice
I use bc or calc on the Linux command line. Been doing it for 20 years now
I still have my analogue scientific calculator from the times when I had to take maths exams at uni
…Analog? Like an abacus?
I used the wrong word, I meant to say physical, as opposed to virtual
I use an emulated version of my old calculator. Once you get used to RPN, nothing else really seems fit for purpose.
Did they make you yell “Eureka!” when you got the answer?
Nobody makes you. It’s just a natural response.
kcalc 4 me
They really missed a trick naming that one
Calk was such an obvious choice…
I honestly run all my calculations in my app launcher when im on PC lol
Or whatever the android calculator is on mobile :3
Same. Not that I do advanced stuff, but KRunner is often good enough.
The pop!_os launcher for me, which does also have a calculator feature, which does everything I need :3
I like that they both use the same operator.
Holy shit I had no idea you could do this, what an awesome feature.
EDIT: You can even press 1 to bring the answer into the launcher search and do the next step of the operation or copy it if you want, bliss.
If you type a question mark in it actually shows what you can do: navigate folders, search for files, search recent files, do internet searches, calculator, run terminal commands, and of course just search for programs on the PC :3
Pretty much all Linux launchers do this nowadays
I use python…
cli version based
I use python even for simple calculations
I second this
Console calculator for the win!
All my homies use casio fx, ti-CAS and/or Wolfram Alpha
I am not positive but I think raspberry pi is includes free Mathematica
To be 100% honest, I just open a terminal and use clisp. Or an RPN calculator when I’m on my phone (RPN Calculator)
You can’t take my hp-49 from me and even if did I’d just emulate it on my phone or computer
Can someone contribute to qalculate by organizing the manual? There’s so much mixed documentation in various places it took me 4 years to find the “where” operator of qalc
