wcalc in Breadstick

Breadstick runs Debian's own wcalc package for ARM64, the build a Debian 13 computer with an ARM processor installs, so wcalc should behave as it does on a Linux PC. It is a command line program rather than an app with a window of its own: you run it by typing its command in Breadstick's Terminal, or in any terminal window on the Linux desktop, and it needs no Desktop or Floating session running.

Commands in the package

  • wcalc

Type it in Breadstick's Terminal to start the program.

Calculators and unit converters run in Breadstick's Terminal as on any Linux system. More in the docs: The Terminal.

About wcalc

From Debian's package description

Wcalc is a very capable calculator. It has standard functions (sin, asin, and sinh for example, in either radians or degrees), many pre-defined constants (pi, e, c, etc.), support for using variables, "active" variables, a command history, hex/octal/binary input and output, unit conversions, embedded comments, and an expandable expression entry field. It evaluates expressions using the standard order of operations.

Wcalc uses intuitive expressions. For example, Wcalc will evaluate: 5sin 4!-7*2(4%6)^2 to be -221.96631678

From Debian's description of the wcalc package, under that package's license.
