No equals button, no modes, no switching apps. CALCULATE AS YOU TYPE Every line evaluates instantly. Add up a bill, split it four ways, work out a budget. Change units for recipes in a single number. A full scientific set is built in: square roots, powers, logs, trig, factorials, and constants like pi and e. CONVERT ANYTHING Length, volume, weight, temperature, speed, area, data, even CSS units.
