How to use Scientific Calculator

The Scientific Calculator evaluates mathematical expressions typed as text. You can use standard operators (+, -, *, /), exponents (**), and functions like sqrt(), sin(), cos(), tan(), log(), ln(), abs(), floor(), ceil(), and round().

Use pi for the value of pi (3.14159...) and e for Euler's number (2.71828...). Trig functions (sin, cos, tan) accept degrees.

Supported functions

sqrt, abs, sin, cos, tan (in degrees), log (base 10), ln (natural log), pow, floor, ceil, round. Constants: pi, e.

Expression syntax

Use standard math operators: + - * /. Use ** for exponents. Parentheses work as expected: (2 + 3) * 4 = 20.

Examples

sqrt(144) = 12. pi * 10**2 = 314.15. sin(30) = 0.5. log(1000) = 3.
