Calc is really nice thing, I use it for a long time (several years).

It is perfect for casual use (as a replacement for traditional 'bc')
and for more sophisticated use.

And what is really nice - it is maintained again (since long time of
"free flight").

Test it - and you'll forget about 'bc' forever :))
