Powerful yet easy command line calculator.

cli-calc

Powerful yet easy command line calculator.

Introduction

python at the comand line (cli)

It is easy and common to use Python as a Calculator.

$ python
Python 3.8.5 (default, Aug  2 2020, 16:00:15)
[Clang 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.17)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> 2**10
1024
>>> _ / 10
102.4
>>> import math
>>> math.pi
3.141592653589793
>>> math.sin(math.pi / 2)
1.0
>>> exit()

But: There must be a better way! And there is...

cli-calc

$ cli-calc
hex, int, float,
0x0, 0, 0.0, : 2**10
2**10
0x400, 1024, 1024.0, : _ / 10
1024.0/10
0x66, 102, 102.4, : sin(pi / 2)
sin(pi/2)
0x1, 1, 1.0, : q
$

Batteries included:

• cli-calc adds the standard math library to the mix, as well as cmath and others.

• Provides convenience functions for formatted output, like fractions and IEEE 754.

• Supports line input from files and unix pipes.

• And some more... :-)

More examples

cos(pi/2)
0xFF ^ 0b10
2**8-1
log(2)
comb(49,6)
factorial(42)
random()
cmath.phase(complex(-1.0, 0.0))

Included Math Libraries

Ready to use out of the box:

• standard operators -, >>, ...

• standard math library cd, log, sin, sinh, gamma, pi, e, tau, inf, nan...

• cmath phase(complex(-1.0, 0.0)), and then most of the above with complex numbers.

• random random, choice(['win', 'lose', 'draw']), mean, ...

• built in functions max, help, sum, ...

Installation

pip install cli-calc

• pypi cli-calc

Configuration

For convenience, add a shell script in ~/bin:

cd ~/bin
vi cli-calc

with the following lines:

path=~/path/to/your/cli-calc/cli_calc
cd $path
./main.py

Make it executeable:

chmod a+x cli-calc

then use it anywhere. :-)

echo "7+8" | cli-calc
cat foo.bar | cli-calc
cli-calc

Help

calc
h
Input:
    "q" for quit, "h" for help

    "_" for last float value
    "_int_" for last int value

    "sin(pi/2)" for sinus, ...

    "pi", "tau" and "e" for pi, tau and Euler

    "+f" to add display for fraction, "-f" to suppress display for fraction
        Other letters are:
        he(x), (o)ctal, (b)inary, (i)nteger,
        (f)raction, (t)ruth, i(e)ee, ieee_bi(n), f(r)om_ieee
        "float" is always visible

    See https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html, use without "math."
        https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_operators.asp

    Try "cos(pi/2)", XOR: "0xFF ^ 0b10", "2**8-1", "factorial(42)",
        "help(math)"

Warning

• Use of eval is evil. However precautions are taken.
