Announcing the release of bc-1.08.1, and its bundled dc-1.5.1. This release fixes some small bugs noticed in the 1.08.0 release (see below for details).
GNU bc and dc are arbitrary precision calculators. GNU bc uses a more traditional algebraic notation, and somewhat C-like function definitions; the behavior is largely specified by POSIX.2. GNU dc uses so-called "reverse-Polish notation (RPN) and macro recursion; there is no formal specification, but it should be compatible with traditional implementations of dc. This release can be downloaded from https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bc/bc-1.08.1.tar.gz (448 KiB) or https://ftp.gnu.org/gnu/bc/bc-1.08.1.tar.xz (323 KiB) and all of the usual mirrors thereof (see https://www.gnu.org/order/ftp.html for a list, or use https://ftpmirror.gnu.org/bc/ to be automatically redirected to one). Changes in bc from 1.08.0 to 1.08.1. Fix a formatting botch in doc/bc.1 (which was rendered as blank lines at the top of the page). Changes in dc 1.5.0 to 1.5.1. Fix dependency rule in dc/Makefile.am (was causing build problems on some systems). Add missing close-" in the .TH line of dc.1.
