Squiid is billed as an advanced calculator.
It sports a terminal user interface supporting both RPN and algebraic input.
It has 3 components: a frontend, the engine, and a parser. The latter contains the library that is used to convert algebraic/infix notation to postfix notation that the backend can evaluate.
This is free and open source software.
Key Features
- Simple terminal user interface using Ratatui.
- Supports both RPN and algebraic input.
- Provides several built-in constants that you can use in your calculations.
- Support for storing and recalling numbers in variables.
- Access the previous answer with the @ character. This works in both algebraic and RPN mode,
- Plugin support will be added in the future.
