SYNOPSIS

kalc [options] [commands]

DESCRIPTION

kalc is a programmable scientific calculator, using RPN (Reverse Polish Notation). It includes over 200 functions and a built-in help system. kalc works with real numbers, complex numbers and also integers in other numeric bases. Its has a complete programming language, with control-flow structures such as if and while. It has "unlimited" memory for you to store objects.

The behavior of kalc has been made to imitate as much as possible a HP48/HP49 calculator. This program is not, however, a HP emulator, and does not use any code from that calculator's ROM.
