Hi Chris and Others, FIrst of all, the dev for "CalcMadeEasy" has made accessibility improvements to the iOS app in the time since Yuma's original post, as I think Scott Howell posted (may have been on the viphone list, though). He has also been working on the MacOS App Store version of this a

Just noticed there is one little gotcha. There is a scale command to say how many digits of accuracy you want bc to do. It defaults to 20 but that actually means the last digit will not neccissarily be correct. For example, I did 4*a(1) which gives you pi but noticed the 20th digit was actuall

If you're going to go that route you might want to pop up an OSX terminal and do man on bc or dc which are arbitrary precision calculators that work from a command line. CB On 3/1/12 10:12 PM, Emrah wrote: Hi there, I gave up on built in calculators and now remotely connect on my Linux box t

Hi Chris, Thanks for that one. Will be checking it in detail later this week. I found another one with a note taking part where you can paste past calculations or parts of it and plug it back into equations. The issue is that all the buttons are unlabelled :) The devver was forthcoming in recti

I don't think the built-in calculator will do it. The only Deg button is just to switch modes from degrees to radians. There are a jillion calculators in the app store so you might want to take a poke through there. The LXVII calculator is one of those HP RPN calculators which should do the tri
