I am looking for a PD desk-calculator with some scientific functions like log, sin, cos and a friendly "face". Programs, I know, are using only base-line-entry of data. I'm looking for a program which can be used by everyone, not only by specialist. In our system (SINIX) there is a program like this (using curses) but it is rather stupid. I hope You will help me Thanks Dieter Becker ******************************************************************************** * Dr. med. dipl.-math Dieter Becker ** Tel.: (0 / +49) 6841 - 16 3046 * * Medizinische Universitaets- und Poliklinik ** Fax.: (0 / +49) 6841 - 16 3369 * * Innere Medizin III *********************************** * D - 6650 Homburg / Saar ** email: * * ** becker@sbuvax.cs.uni-sb.de * ********************************************************************************
