Scientific Calculator

Evaluate expressions with a hand-written parser — no eval.Math & Statistics

Scientific Calculator

Evaluate expressions with + − × ÷ % ^ parentheses, constants (pi, e) and functions: sin cos tan asin acos atan sqrt ln log10 abs round. Nothing is eval()ed — the parser is hand-written.

About this tool

Operator precedence, parentheses, powers, pi and e constants, and trig, log and root functions — parsed by a recursive-descent parser written for this tool, so input is never executed as code.

How to use the Scientific Calculator tool

  1. Type the expression. Or click a preset to fill it in.
  2. Choose degrees or radians. For the trig functions.
  3. Read the value. Shown to 12 significant digits.

Supported formats

Input

  • Plain text or file input

Output

  • Converted or analysed output

Inputs are validated before anything is processed. Invalid values and unsupported files are rejected with a clear error instead of failing silently.

Frequently asked questions

Which functions are supported?

sin, cos, tan (and inverses), sqrt, ln, log10, abs, round.

Is my expression executed?

No. A hand-written parser reads it; eval is never called.

Why does sin(30) need degrees?

A toggle decides: degrees by default, radians when unticked.
