It looks neat but I wish it had physics calculations - I want to be able to write something like 10m * 1000kg * 9.8m/s^2 in kWh and see a correct result

- madisp 7y agothis looks awesome, thanks!
- jsilence 7y agoNot as polished as Soulver and Numi, but maybe Frink is something for you: https://frinklang.org/ https://frinklang.org/
- roryokane 7y agoAs a student project, I once prototyped a Soulver-like interface that used Frink for its calculations: https://github.com/roryokane/CalcuDoc/wiki/About-CalcuDoc https://github.com/roryokane/CalcuDoc/wiki/About-CalcuDoc. You can see screenshots and get the code from that link. I didn’t continue working on it after the class finished, though – I lost all interest after I realized that the Frink programming language, despite being free, is not open source.
- sharkdp 7y agoInsect is an open source, high-precision scientific calculator with support for physical units, which I wrote some time ago. There is a version on the web and one for the terminal. Web version: https://insect.sh/ https://insect.sh/ Your calculation: https://insect.sh/?q=10m%20*%201000kg%20*%209.8m%2Fs%5E2%20to%20kWh https://insect.sh/?q=10m%20*%201000kg%20*%209.8m%2Fs%5E2%20t...
- roelschroeven 7y agoSpeedcrunch does that, if you don't mind typing it as "10 meter * 1000 kilo gram * 9.8 meter/second^2 in kilo watt hour". Qalculate! works better for those things: it understands it like you wrote (you have to use "to" instead of "in" for unit conversions though).
