Kcalc is a calculator
application integrated with the KDE
-Desktop. In the default view it includes a number pad, buttons for adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing, brackets, memory keys, percent, reciprocal, factorial, square, square root, and x to the power of y buttons.
Additional buttons for scientific and engineering (trigonometric and logarithmic functions), statistics and logic functions can be enabled as needed. 6 additional buttons can be predefined with mathematical constant
s and physical constant
s or custom values. It is ideal for calculations involving varying bases.
Since version 2 (included in KDE 3.5) KCalc offers arbitrary precision.

Mathematical constant
A mathematical constant is a special number, usually a real number, that is "significantly interesting in some way". Constants arise in many different areas of mathematics, with constants such as and occurring in such diverse contexts as geometry, number theory and calculus.What it means for a...

Physical constant
A physical constant is a physical quantity that is generally believed to be both universal in nature and constant in time. It can be contrasted with a mathematical constant, which is a fixed numerical value but does not directly involve any physical measurement.There are many physical constants in...
