Very roughly based on the HP-28/48 series of + calculators, its many features include: + * Choice of algebraic or RPN (stack-based) entry of calculations. + * Arbitrary precision integers and floating-point numbers. + * Arithmetic on rational numbers, complex numbers (rectangular and polar), + error forms with standard deviations, open and closed intervals, vectors + and matrices, dates and times, infinities, sets, quantities with units, + and algebraic formulas. + * Mathematical operations such as logarithms and trigonometric functions. + * Programmer's features (bitwise operations, non-decimal numbers). + * Financial functions such as future value and internal rate of return. + * Number theoretical features such as prime factorization and arithmetic + modulo M for any M. + * Algebraic manipulation features, including symbolic calculus. + * Moving data to and from regular editing buffers. + * "Embedded mode" for manipulating Calc formulas and data directly inside + any editing buffer. + * Graphics using GNUPLOT, a versatile (and free) plotting program. + * Easy programming using keyboard macros, algebraic formulas, algebraic + rewrite rules, or extended Emacs Lisp. +</longdescription> </pkgmetadata> |
