Powerful yet easy command line calculator.

## Introduction

Using plain python at the command line already provides a pretty decent calculator:

```bash
$ python
Python 3.8.5 (default, Aug  2 2020, 16:00:15)
[Clang 11.0.0 (clang-1100.0.33.17)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> 2**10
1024
>>> _ / 10
102.4
>>> import math
>>> math.pi
3.141592653589793
>>> math.sin(math.pi / 2)
1.0
>>> exit()
```

[
Read more about
[Python as a Calculator](https://docs.python.org/3/tutorial/introduction.html#using-python-as-a-calculator).
]

But not all is straight forward.
For example, if you want to calculate ```sin(pi/2)```:
* First you need to ```import math```,
* and then use it with ```math.sin( math.pi / 2 )```.

But
[there must be a better way!](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UANN2Eu6ZnM)
And there is...


### cli-calc

```bash
$ cli-calc
hex, int, float,
0x0, 0, 0.0, : 2**10
2**10
0x400, 1024, 1024.0, : _ / 10
1024.0/10
0x66, 102, 102.4, : pi
pi
0x3, 3, 3.141592653589793, : sin(pi / 2)
sin(pi/2)
0x1, 1, 1.0, : q
$
```

[Batteries included](https://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0206/#batteries-included-philosophy):

* ```cli-calc``` adds the standard
[math](https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html)
library to the mix, as well as cmath and others.
* Provides convenience functions for formatted output, like
[fractions](https://docs.python.org/3.6/library/fractions.html)
and
[IEEE 754](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IEEE_754).
* Supports line input from files and Unix pipes.
* And some more... :-)

```

## Included Math Libraries

Ready to use out of the box:

- [standard operators](https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_operators.asp)
  ``` -, >>, ...```
- [standard math library](https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html)
  ```cd, log, sin, sinh, gamma, pi, e, tau, inf, nan...```

- [cmath](https://docs.python.org/3/library/cmath.html)
  ```phase(complex(-1.0, 0.0)), and then most of the above with complex numbers.```
- [random](https://docs.python.org/3/library/random.html#examples)
  ```random, choice(['win', 'lose', 'draw']), mean, ...```

- [built in functions](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html)
  ```max, help, sum, ...```


# Installation

```bash
pip install cli-calc
```

- [pypi cli-calc](https://pypi.org/project/cli-calc/)

## Configuration

For convenience, add a shell script in ```~/bin```:

```bash
cd ~/bin
vi cli-calc
```

with the following lines:

```bash
path=~/path/to/your/cli-calc/cli_calc
cd $path
./main.py
```

Make it executable:

```bash
chmod a+x cli-calc
```

then use it anywhere. :-)

```bash
echo "7+8" | cli-calc
cat foo.bar | cli-calc
cli-calc
```

## Help

```bash
cli-calc
h
Input:
    "q" for quit, "h" for help

    "_" for last float value
    "_int_" for last int value

    "sin(pi/2)" for sinus, ...

    "pi", "tau" and "e" for pi, tau and Euler

    "+f" to add display for fraction, "-f" to suppress display for fraction
        Other letters are:
        he(x), (o)ctal, (b)inary, (i)nteger,
        (f)raction, (t)ruth, i(e)ee, ieee_bi(n), f(r)om_ieee
        "float" is always visible

    See https://docs.python.org/3/library/math.html, use without "math."
        https://www.w3schools.com/python/python_operators.asp

    Try "cos(pi/2)", XOR: "0xFF ^ 0b10", "2**8-1", "factorial(42)",
        "help(math)"
```

## Warning

- Use of [```eval```](https://docs.python.org/3/library/functions.html#eval) is evil.
  However precautions are taken.
