I use my Emacs package compute.el (www.t-e-k.biz/els/compute.el)
for all computations. Since I'm doing everything through Emacs,
it is just 1 keystroke (Alt-C) away.
Bellow are some examples.
Ehud.
Compute: 2/3
result: 0.666667.
Compute: 2./3
result: 0.666667.
Compute: 2+3*4+5
result: 19, \x13.
Compute: (2+3)*4+5
result: 25, \x19.
Compute: @atan(1)*4
result: 180, \xb4.
Compute: @d2r(180)
result: 3.141593.
Compute: 2/3*6
result: 4, \x4.
Compute: 2/(3*6)
result: 0.111111.
Compute: 2**10
result: 1024, \x400.
Compute: A=2**10 A set to 2
result: 1024, \x400.
Compute: A=(2**10) A set to 1024
result: 1024, \x400.
Compute: A=(A/3) A was 1024 A set to 341.333
result: 341.333333.
Compute: A=(A/3) A was 341.333 A set to 113.778
result: 113.777778.
