I frequently need to do some basic calculations.  I have used the

:echo (4+7)*3-14

My question is this:
Is there a way to do calculations with doubles instead of integers
without piping to an external program like bc and then inserting into
a buffer?
:r!echo '491.41 - 29.74' | bc

I understand that you want to see the result, not
insert it into the buffer. How about this:

   :!echo '491.41 - 29.74' | bc
