What is calc?

Calc is an interactive calculator which provides for easy large
numeric calculations, but which also can be easily programmed
for difficult or long calculations. It can accept a command line
argument, in which case it executes that single command and exits.
Otherwise, it enters interactive mode. In this mode, it accepts
commands one at a time, processes them, and displays the answers.
In the simplest case, commands are simply expressions which are
evaluated. For example, the following line can be input:

sh
3 * (4 + 1)

and the calculator will print:

sh
15

Calc has the usual collection of arithmetic operators +, -, /, * as
well as ^ (exponentiation), % (modulus) and // (integer divide).
For example:

sh
3 * 19^43 - 1

will produce:

sh
29075426613099201338473141505176993450849249622191102976

Notice that calc values can be very large. For example:

sh
2^23209-1

will print:

sh
402874115778988778181873329071 ... many digits ... 3779264511

The special '.' symbol (called dot), represents the result of the
last command expression, if any. This is of great use when a series
of partial results are calculated, or when the output mode is changed
and the last result needs to be redisplayed. For example, the above
result can be modified by typing:

sh
. % (2^127-1)

and the calculator will print:

sh
47385033654019111249345128555354223304

For more complex calculations, variables can be used to save the
intermediate results. For example, the result of adding 7 to the
previous result can be saved by typing:

sh
curds = 15
whey = 7 + 2*curds

Functions can be used in expressions. There are a great number of
pre-defined functions. For example, the following will calculate
the factorial of the value of 'whey':

sh
fact(whey)

and the calculator prints:

sh
13763753091226345046315979581580902400000000

The calculator also knows about complex numbers, so that typing:

sh
(2+3i) * (4-3i)
cos(.)

will print:

sh
17+6i
-55.50474777265624667147+193.9265235748927986537i

The calculator can calculate transcendental functions, and accept and
display numbers in real or exponential format. For example, typing:

sh
config("display", 70),
epsilon(1e-70),
sin(1)

prints:

sh
0.8414709848078965066525023216302989996225630607983710656727517099919104

Calc can output values in terms of fractions, octal or hexadecimal.
For example:

sh
config("mode", "fraction"),
(17/19)^23
print
base(16),
(19/17)^29
print
log(79.3i)

will print:

sh
19967568900859523802559065713/257829627945307727248226067259

0x17b5164ac24ee836bf/0xc7b7a8e3ef5fcf752+0x883eaf5adadd26be3/0xc7b7a8e3ef5fcf752i

All numbers are represented as fractions with arbitrarily large
numerators and denominators which are always reduced to lowest terms.
Real or exponential format numbers can be input and are converted
to the equivalent fraction. Hex, binary, or octal numbers can be
input by using numbers with leading '0x', '0b' or '0' characters.
Complex numbers can be input using a trailing 'i', as in '2+3i'.
Strings and characters are input by using single or double quotes.

Commands are statements in a C-like language, where each input
line is treated as the body of a procedure. Thus the command
line can contain variable declarations, expressions, labels,
conditional tests, and loops. Assignments to any variable name
will automatically define that name as a global variable. The
other important thing to know is that all non-assignment expressions
which are evaluated are automatically printed. Thus, you can evaluate
an expression's value by simply typing it in.

Many useful built-in mathematical functions are available. Use the:

sh
help builtin

command to list them.

You can also define your own functions by using the 'define' keyword,
followed by a function declaration very similar to C.

sh
define f2(n)
{
        local ans;

        ans = 1;
        while (n > 1)
                ans *= (n -= 2);
        return ans;
}

Thus the input:

sh
f2(79)

will produce:

sh
1009847364737869270905302433221592504062302663202724609375

Functions which only need to return a simple expression can be defined
using an equals sign, as in the example:

sh
define sc(a,b) = a^3 + b^3

Thus the input:

sh
sc(31, 61)

will produce:

sh
256772

Variables in functions can be defined as either 'global', 'local',
or 'static'. Global variables are common to all functions and the
command line, whereas local variables are unique to each function
level, and are destroyed when the function returns. Static variables
are scoped within single input files, or within functions, and are
never destroyed. Variables are not typed at definition time, but
dynamically change as they are used.

For more information about the calc language and features, try:

sh
help overview

Calc has a help command that will produce information about
every builtin function, command as well as a number of other
aspects of calc usage. Try the command:

sh
help help

for and overview of the help system. The command:

sh
help builtin

provides information on built-in mathematical functions, whereas:

sh
help asinh

will provides information a specific function. The following
help files:

sh
help command
help define
help operator
help statement
help variable

provide a good overview of the calc language. If you are familiar
with C, you should also try:

sh
help unexpected

It contains information about differences between C and calc
that may surprise C programmers. The command:

sh
help environment

contains information regarding how environment variables can be
used to configure some aspects of calc. If CALCRC and
CALCPATH are unset, calc first checks the relevant XDG base
directory environment variables and uses them when they name
usable absolute directories. If CALCHISTFILE is unset,
calc preserves an existing ~/.calc_history; otherwise it uses
${XDG_STATE_HOME}/calc/history when XDG_STATE_HOME names a
usable absolute writable directory.

On calc repo branches

The calc repo has 3 important branches:

master branch

This branch is where the latest stable releases of calc are made.

When in doubt, use the master branch.

calcv3 branch

The "calc v3" branch is where the new calc v3 direction
work is being performed.

Among the various goals of "calc v3" is to support 64-bit and larger CPUs,
to support very large values up to 256 TBytes in size (up to 2^(2^51-1), assuming you have the RAM/swap space), etc.
See the new calc v3 discussion for more details.

When calc version 2.17.0.0 was formed (see the
master branch), the "calc v3" branch "forked"
off of the calc version 2.17.0.0 code base to form the calc version 3.0.1.0 code base.

While you are welcome to try the "calc v3" branch, please remember that it is an "experimental" branch.

legacy-calc branch

Some very old systems might have trouble with the set of changes that were made to the calc code base between
calc version 2.16.1.3, and calc version 2.17.0.0. For example, some very old systems that
don't support a c17 C compiler, or that lack some of the standard include files,
or that don't support the 64-bit int64_t and uint64_t types, or that don't support the boolean type,
that use 32-bit (or smaller) CPUs, etc., might not be able to compile the master branch code.

Very old systems that are unable to compile/use# the master branch should use the
legacy-calc branch
which will be "frozen" at calc version 2.16.1.x (such as version 2.16.1.3).
