- shnpln 8mo agoThis is pretty cool, I have a long running hobby project to make something similar in the terminal. https://github.com/ShaneMarusczak/rm-repl https://github.com/ShaneMarusczak/rm-repl
- proee 8mo agoGreat tool. Reminds me of Instacalc, which has bee around forever. https://instacalc.com/ https://instacalc.com/
- HoldOnAMinute 8mo agoWe had this in the early 1990's, it was called Mathematica [0] [0] - https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2013/06/there-was-a-time-before-mathematica/ https://writings.stephenwolfram.com/2013/06/there-was-a-time...

- iterance 8mo agoMathematicians used to send each other letters in the mail until very recently. Perhaps I do not understand what you mean?

- hoistbypetard 8mo agoIt was eye-wateringly expensive and required a high-end system, though. It was good, and I liked it too, but it's not the same as being usable from pretty much anywhere for $0.
- PerseusLynx 8mo agoCool project. I wonder what benefits it has over using good old Desmos Calculator.
- cybrox 8mo agoIt would be cool if it could be part of a text notebook. E.g. extended Mathjax syntax in Markdown that allows plot() or derive()
- prenx4x 8mo agoSimilar natural language calculator - https://hissab.io https://hissab.io
- Jun8 8mo agoPretty cool but handling large numbers is pretty limited: chokes on 171! Or 5^5^5.

- meken 8mo agoI was using Apple Notes for some “math thinking” the other week. A killer feature for me would be an easy way to input various math Unicode characters (I was just copy and pasting them).
- WillAdams 8mo agoThere are various stylus-based tools which do that sort of thing: https://www.inftyproject.org/en/software.html https://www.inftyproject.org/en/software.html (I used to use the math input palette w/ a Wacom ArtZ on my NeXT Cube for transcribing math documents in college)
- mikeocool 8mo agoIf your in the Apple ecosystem, Soulver is a similar app to this that is really great. I still like it better than the math built into notes for anything beyond basics.
- avel 8mo ago$39?! I'll stick with qalc!
- freetime2 8mo agoPretty cool. It looks like it also uses local storage - so if you navigate away and come back (or just refresh the page) all of your expressions are still there. A lot of paid productivity apps that I use don't even manage that.
- Krastan 8mo agoI've been using notepadcalculator.com for years and it's been great
