Help Index :: Misc :: calculate SYNTAX calculate : calculates the value of the given expression DESCRIPTION Provides a very basic calculator. The operators +, -, *, /, and ^ (exponent) are implemented. You can use parentheses to group expressions to overcome precedence rules, for example: > calc 2+4*3 2+4*3 = 14 > calc (2+4)*3 (2+4)*3 = 18 You can "roll dice" with expressions like 4d4 or 3d2+3. (You may only roll up to 100 dice at a time.) The constants pi, e, and i (imaginary, the square root of -1) can be used. The functions sin(), cos(), sqrt(), exp(), and log() can be used.
