Scientific Calculator

Type a whole expression rather than pressing one button at a time. Supports the usual arithmetic plus trigonometric functions, logarithms, roots, powers and factorials, with standard operator precedence and parentheses for grouping.

About

What the Scientific Calculator does

Expressions are parsed by a purpose-built maths parser, not evaluated as code, so only the listed functions and constants can ever be reached. Trigonometric functions work in radians, which is the mathematical standard — for degrees, multiply by pi/180.

How it works

Using the Scientific Calculator

  1. 1Type your expression, for example sin(pi/6) + sqrt(16) * pow(2, 3).
  2. 2Use parentheses to group; multiplication and division bind tighter than addition and subtraction.
  3. 3Available functions include sin, cos, tan, ln, log, sqrt, cbrt, abs, exp, round, fact, pow, min and max.
  4. 4Constants pi, e and tau are recognised by name.
  5. 5The exact result and a rounded version are both shown.
Use cases
