This is really a huge miss, I hate using Google's online calculator (for correctly sized SSD partitions), not to mention you are not always online with SystemRescueCD, right?
Something simple like Windows Calculator will suffice, I don't know the alternatives for Linux.
Thank you.
Calculator?
Re: Calculator?
Just type xcalc.
You can also use the textmode calculator "bc"
Use e.g. scale=3 to show 3 fractional digits.
dc is a textmode UPN calculator.

Re: Calculator?
There is a nice CLI program "calc", which I use in Arch. Looks like this:
It would be good if maintainers add this program.
Code: Select all
calc '2 * 2 + (98 - 3)'
Re: Calculator?
try this
echo '2 * 2.495 + (98 - 3)'|bc

echo '2 * 2.495 + (98 - 3)'|bc

Re: Calculator?
Using zsh:
Code: Select all
% echo $((2 * 2.495 + (98 - 3)))
99.989999999999995

Re: Calculator?
+1 for bc
(bc - An arbitrary precision calculator language)
From the past, I have the habit of using "bc -l" (floating points using the math lib)

Re: Calculator?
OP here. I use http://web2.0calc.com/ - when there is a working Internet connection. Something similar (graphical) working offline might be interesting. Or something like the the stock windows Calculator or an old style hardware calculator (with similar features). Those memory buttons have a purpose.
I'll check with your recommendation, when booting from inside SystemRescueCd. :)
