pcalc
A terminal calculator for programmers working with binary, hexadecimal, and decimal numbers, bitwise operations, and custom operand sizes.
What is pcalc?
Programmer Calculator (pcalc) is a terminal-based tool designed for software developers and embedded engineers who need to perform calculations involving multiple number representations and bit-level manipulations. It provides an efficient interface for working with binary, hexadecimal, and decimal numbers simultaneously, addressing the limitations of clunky online tools. The tool supports custom operand sizes, bitwise operations, and a customizable interface to maximize productivity in hardware-close programming tasks.
Software developers, embedded engineers, and anyone working close to the hardware, such as those developing emulators (e.g., Nintendo Gameboy Emulator) or systems programming, who require frequent bit-level calculations and multi-representation number handling.
Developers choose pcalc for its terminal-based efficiency, allowing seamless multitasking without switching to online tools, and its flexibility in handling complex expressions with operator precedence, custom bit-widths, and a highly customizable interface that can be tailored to individual workflows.
