Calca

Calca is a powerful symbolic calculator that provides instant answers while you type. It efficiently solves equations and simplifies complex expressions, essentially offering a computer algebra system in the palm of your hand. Furthermore, it doubles as a feature-rich Markdown text editor, enabling users to articulate their thoughts alongside their calculations.

Calca is an ideal tool for professionals and students alike, catering to anyone who deals with numbers and equations. Variables and functions can be effortlessly created with a few keystrokes and manipulated using an extensive collection of operators and functions.

What sets Calca apart is its real-time updates as you input data, similar to the functioning of a spreadsheet. You can declare variables, modify their values, and observe everything changing before your eyes. As all calculations are performed on the device itself, there is no dependency on an internet connection, resulting in instantaneous answers.

All calculations are stored as plain text, facilitating easy sharing across different editors and devices. Calca is designed to seamlessly integrate with iCloud documents, granting access to your calculations from all your devices.

Additionally, Calca includes a comprehensive suite of examples covering a wide range of topics, from home mortgages to kinetics. These examples are thoroughly explained within the Calca application itself.

Tired of relying on traditional desktop calculators or basic built-in OS calculators with oversized buttons? Calca unleashes the full potential of your machine by performing complex calculations beyond simple one-line arithmetic.

Calculation Features:

• Variables - e.g., x = 42
• Functions - e.g., f(c) = 9/5*c + 32 (supports recursive functions)
• Units - e.g., 42 mph in kmph, currency conversions (e.g., ¥599 in $)
• Equation solving - e.g., x + 2x + 4x = 42 (find the value of x)
• Matrices with inverses (used for solving linear equations)
• Sum, prod, map, and reduce operations on lists, matrices, and ranges
• Trigonometry and complex numbers
• Function derivatives
• Logic operations and if statements
• Binary arithmetic (and &, or |) and support for binary and hex numbers (e.g., 0xA9 and 0b1010)
• Unit tracking (e.g., m, s, m/s, m/s^2) allowing equation verification during computation
