Unc is a calculator which runs on the 3Com PalmPilot and on Microsoft Windows. Unc has a number of features not often found in other calculators:
Units. One of Uncs main features is its ability to calculate using units, like feet, miles, pounds, meters, seconds, and so on. Unc does not merely convert between units (although it certainly does conversions), but also performs calculations on numbers containing units.
For example, you can multiply 55 miles per hour by 1.5 hours and get the result 82.5 miles. Unc already knows most of the units in common use as well as specialized units used in various fields. You can also define your own units and Unc will use them in calculations just like the built-in units.
Arithmetic. The main purpose of any calculator is to do arithmetic, and Unc has a large set of arithmetic functions. It does the usual addition, subtraction, multiplication and division, as well as powers and roots, logarithms, trigonometric and hyperbolic functions. It can handle numbers in conventional or scientific notation.
Integer arithmetic. Unc is also a full-featured programmers calculator that can operate on fixed size integers up to 128 bits in size. It can accept and display integers in decimal, hexadecimal, binary, octal, or any other base from 2 to 36. It does arithmetic, logical operations, shifts, rotates, masks and byte-swaps. |
