Command-Line RPN calculator
Command line tools that can take an expression as arguments or interactively.
General
The program takes inputs that are separated by space (or return in interactive mode). Inputs can be either numbers or a function. Functions can be stack manipulation or all of the common mathematical operations.
Examples
- 2 + (-5):
2 -5 add - 3 / -1:
3 1 chs div - sqrt(9)^cos(3.4):
9 2 root 3.4 cos pow
Functions
Stack pushes
Funcions that pushes something into the stack.
| Operation | Syntax | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Number | number | Will push a number into the stack |
| Rand | rand, random |
Random number between 0 and 1 |
| π | pi |
|
| Euler's number | e |
System funcions
| Operation | Syntax | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Quit | q, quit, exit |
Quits the program |
print, ls |
Prints the stack |
Stack manipulation and memory
| Operation | Syntax | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Swap | swp, <>, ><, swap |
Swaps the x and y buffer |
| Roll down | rld, roll, rolld, rolldown |
Rolls the stack down |
| Roll up | rlu, rollu, rollup |
Rolls the stack up |
| Store | sto, store |
Takes one argument that sets the storage location |
| Recall | rcl, recall |
Pushes the numbes stored in a argument position |
Stack drop
Functions that pops off the x and y buffers and pushes the product based on the function.
| Operation | Syntax | Description |
|---|---|---|
