[comp.sources.wanted] Calculater program needed

rickt@wybbs.mi.org (Rick Tucker ) (05/20/91)

Does anyone have a calculater routine written in 'C' or
shell for the Unix/Xenix environment.
This would be something we would shell out of our Informix program
(or other language) to get to.

Please mail direct or post to the net.

Thanks.

There is another calculator program in arisia.xerox.com:~ftp/pub/C_calc.tar.Z.
It uses demand driven evaluation to get results accurate to +-1 in the least
significant displayed digit.  You can scroll through numbers to see as much
of them as you like.  (It gets the right answer for ln(pi + exp(-500) - pi),
to as many digits as you care to look at.)

It runs on Sun 3s, Sun 4s, RS/6000s and some other workstations.
