Speedcrunch!! Speedcrunch is a text based calculator that I just recently found, and already cannot live without. The syntax is very intuitive. If you’re a programmer, you will feel right at home. Now, I do all my bit twiddling in speedcrunch before it gets to code.
It also works on Windows. At work, I have a Windows and Linux machine, and it is pinned to the taskbar on both.
My bad. I personally can’t stand Python, and am just a python hater. If I used python professionally as a general purpose language, I would probably want all the tools. Though… I never needed a virtual environment in another language.
In the codebases I work in, python is occasionally used as a cross-platform scripting language, which is where its bread and butter should be. Never more than 200 lines. Every time I crack open a codebase, if there is any python, it doesn’t work. That will be the thing I have to fight before I actually get to working on the actual problem. If it has been a year, it’s broken. If it’s a Linux project, you’re better off using Bash if you want it to run a year from now. On Windows, well…
