#statstab #495 Unsure Calculator
Thoughts: Nifty way to incorporate your uncertainty when making some calculations and decisions.
I enjoy notepad calculators like https://numbr.dev, but I wanted something that works both as a web app and on local files via CLI and fix a few annoyances along the way. The result is https://github.com/karlb/calced/ .
Let me know how you like it!

More work on my pure #python #rpn #calculator. I added the ability to edit user functions for the calculator with syntax highlighting thanks to the IDLE editor.
So, I teach high school math and we use numworks graphing calculators. They've been excellent! However, I recently ran across an issue that shows you can't always trust what your calculator says.
Suppose you want to take the cube root of negative 230. You should get approximately -6.127. It is perfectly fine to take the cube root of a negative number and get a real result. However, if the calculator is in Complex/Cartesian mode for displaying complex numbers, you get approximately 3.063+0.306i. Simply moving the negative sign outside of the radical sign (again, this is just fine to do in high school), you get the correct answer as shown below.
I wonder what causes this?
Is there any calculator for linux that has the same date calculation function like Windows calculator have?
Working on my#rpn #calculator project in pure #python, updated the User Function window to run user functions directly on the stack.
«dCode - Online Ciphers, Solvers, Decoders, Calculators:
dCode is the universal site for decipher coded messages, cheating on letter games, solving puzzles, geocaches and treasure hunts, etc.»
This data-collecting website is often suggested to me when I am looking for something for data security and encryption. Are there any data-saving online alternatives in this regard?

… Going by the functions seemingly directly available via the keys (of the new NumWorks corp * scientific * calculator; see the image in thread), meets my criteria of basic #calculator with parentheses …

Does it have nerfed battery size!
Given the cost of ~€ 30, menu-driven use for its intended purpose would be a pain in the ass.

Pour la rentrée 2026, NumWorks va lancer une calculatrice scientifique pour le collège, dont nous avons déjà pu te tester un prototype. Par la suite, NumWorks t'avait ouvert l'accès à un simulateur web, faisant tourner une version 1.0 du logiciel Scandium de la calculatrice scientifique...
Those of us who grew up in the 1970s and '80s remember the common refrain of math teachers: "Yes, of course you've got to learn how to do #math in your head, it's not like you're going to carry a #calculator around everywhere."
And many people have laughed at that phrase because in fact we DO carry a calculator around (in the form of a ubiquitous app on every smartphone).
But it didn't occur to me until TODAY that the first calculator app for smartphone was probably coded by someone my age who heard that math teacher phrase one time too many growing up and finally said "Oh yeah, I'LL SHOW THEM!"
