This website contains an archive of files for the Acorn Electron, BBC Micro, Acorn Archimedes, Commodore 16 and Commodore 64 computers, which Dominic Ford has rescued from his private collection of floppy disks and cassettes.

Some of these files were originally commercial releases in the 1980s and 1990s, but they are now widely available online. I assume that copyright over them is no longer being asserted. If you own the copyright and would like files to be removed, please contact me.

A Scientific Calculator [ to remedy Acorn's omission ]
------------------------------------------------------

Docs as of 1/9/89 (PS 6 Days to my birthday!)


Introduction (Very Boring!)
---------------------------

  The calculator is a fully algerbraic one ie. It evaluates
expresions with the priorites in the following order
Brackets, Power, Multiplication / Divison, Addition /
Subraction. Hence 2+3*4 is 2+(3*4) = 14 rather than what
Acorn's one says it is, which is (2+3)*4 = 20 (none of the
calculators I have seen on the Arc do this which I would
say is a fairly important feature). Also the calculator
handles numbers greater then 99999999 by using 9 digits
with scientific notation ( 9 digits is a compromise between
the max accuracy of BBC BASIC 5, decimal fractions  are not
calculate to a sufficient degree of accuracy & the  last
place is generally wrong, and the max number of  digits
avaliable (10).
  


Operation
--------- 

  Functions are avaliable by using the standard
Reverse-Polish method on normal calculators ( eg 20 sin
rather than sin 20 ).

***  The inverse function of a key is available  ***
***  by clicking ADJUST rather than select       ***

 (ie SELECT for sin, ADJUST for arcsin). Ones that
are not too obvious are EXP (that is to set the exponenet
in scientifc notation) which adjust gives PI (EXP also
gives PI if you have not entered any digits after a clear
or equals).


  There is also a key short cut feature. Once the mouse has
been clicked on the calculator the caret is claimed (
<Escape> at any time will return it to where it was claimed
from). The keyboard can then be used to input into the
calc. This feature is very much in it's infancy and I
haven't really decided which key maps onto which function I
would REALLY appreciate feedback in this respect.

  So far 0,1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,0,+,-,/,*,= relate to
themselves(!), return is =, delete is clear, shift delete
is all clear and so is # (for the number pad) and
A,B,C,D,E,F relate to A,B,C,D,E,F (!) in hex mode but
sin,cos,tan,1/x,log,ln in dec mode (think about it!).

  Every button flashes when selected, this feature is
particularly useful when using the keyboard as it gives an
immediate on screen feedback of any key press.

Memory
------

  Memory funtions avaliable are MR, M+ select, M- (adjust
on M+) and Min (Memory in). If you want to clear the memory
the best way is to select Clear and the Min. AC and C do
NOT clear the memory. When data is in the memory the memory
indicator (a small M in the top left corner of the window)
goes from grey to black.


Menu Options
------------

  The default angular setting is Degrees but if menu is
clicked over the calculator Radians can be selected (I
havn't programmed gradians - because BASIC dosn't have the
functions and no one I know uses them!, I think they use
them in France, well at least it was by Nepolians orders
that they were created! ).

  Bases implemented are 16,10,2 and conversion is dead easy
by just selecting the base required in the menu (Your
selection will be highlighted on the display bar on the top
of the window). In base 16 sin, cos, tan, 1/x, log and ln
become A, B, C, D, E and F for hex entry. When in bases
16 and 2 the following functions cease to work (function!)
sin, cos, tan, root, 1/x, log, ln, rnd, rnd#, EXP.

  I have included both Fix and Sci, Fix specifies the
number of decimal places to be displayed & will round off
if required and Sci specifies the number of decimal places
displayed (with rounding) under scientific notation. From 0
to 9 decimal places can be set. With reference to Fix &
Sci, the function 'rnd' will set the internal register to
the value of the displayed register (ie if you are using
Fix 3 to show 3.14159265 the the display is 3.142 and on
clicking rnd the register storing 3.14159265 becomes 3.142
- try it and see!). Norm unsets Fix and Sci settings.

Bugs and Stuff!
---------------

  
  The largest number is of the order 1*10^32, this is
BASIC's fault because it does not do extended precison
arithmetic. This probably won't be fixed for a LONG while
(well it IS a quite big rewrite!) but it is on the cards if
lots of people want it!

  There is what I would call an embarrassing bug in
relation to this, BASIC does not store &80000000 (ie 1<<31)
in real variables perfectly and will round it off using
scientific notation hence giving an error if you want to
display the number as HEX or BINARY. (Of course you will
also get an error if you try converting 2 * 10^20 into
HEX!). Sorry about this but fixing it is loads of hassle so
will probably will do it when I add hyperbolic functions
and a Casio FX 6000G look alike!


Finally
-------

  I hope that that is enough info to be able to use the
calculator satisfactoraly and if any mad person would like
to contact me for some strange reason like you want a bug
fixed or some more functions I can be contacted at :-
