- MayeulC 8y agoTo be frank, I do the same with the GNU Octave CLI, which is IMO much more suited to evaluating mathematical expressions, and very short programs. Out-of the box, that is. The right answer is probably to use the right tool for the job, be it xcas, octave or python. Microsoft's calculator is probably better suited for unit conversion, for instance, although units(1) would be a contender :)
