Straight up great calculator, I use it all the time now
There is no joke
qalc is pretty nice and it works
I still have my analogue scientific calculator from the times when I had to take maths exams at uni
- Did they make you yell "Eureka!" when you got the answer?
  
  Nobody makes you. It's just a natural response.
- ...Analog? Like an abacus?
  
  I used the wrong word, I meant to say physical, as opposed to virtual
May I recommend SpeedCrunch
- You definitely may! I'll have to check that out, it looks good!
- Speedcrunch FTW. I use it all the time.
- Ok that does look nice
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 use python even for simple calculations
- Julia for me. It has better mathematical syntax, especially if you happen to be doing anything with matrices, and theres no need to include a library for elementary functions.
- I second this
kcalc 4 me
- They really missed a trick naming that one
  
  Calk was such an obvious choice...
cli version based
- yes and with custom readline config (/etc/inputrc) you can use vim keybinds in it
  
  I'm so sorry.
To be 100% honest, I just open a terminal and use clisp. Or an RPN calculator when I'm on my phone (RPN Calculator)
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
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
fun fact: the windows calculator is open source https://github.com/microsoft/calculator
bc
- bc -l gang
You can't take my hp-49 from me and even if did I'd just emulate it on my phone or computer
I use python...
I use bc or calc on the Linux command line. Been doing it for 20 years now
Console calculator for the win!
Im pretty sure u can compile it for Windows as well
i lovr galculator
Symbolab got me through college (and wolfram alpha when symbolab didn't cut it)
