Source: apcalc Section: math Priority: optional Maintainer: Martin Buck Standards-Version: 4.3.0 Build-Depends: libreadline-dev, debhelper (>= 10), gcc (>= 4:4.1.1-7), bsdmainutils, groff-base Homepage: http://www.isthe.com/chongo/tech/comp/calc/ Package: apcalc Section: math Architecture: any Depends: apcalc-common (= ${source:Version}), sensible-utils, ${shlibs:Depends}, ${misc:Depends} Description: Arbitrary precision calculator (original name: calc) Calc is an arbitrary precision arithmetic system that uses a C-like language. Calc is useful as a calculator, an algorithm prototyper and as a mathematical research tool. More importantly, calc provides one with a machine independent means of computation. Calc comes with a rich set of builtin mathematical and programmatic functions. . Calc is built on top of the library libcalc that represents numeric values as fractions reduced to their lowest terms. This library can also be used to add arbitrary precision capabilities to your own programs and is available in the Debian package `apcalc-dev'. . The original name of this package is `calc', but it had to be changed to `apcalc' for Debian, because there's already another package called `calc' in Debian. Nevertheless, the binary and manpage installed by this package are still named `calc'.

Calc is useful as a calculator, an algorithm prototyper and as a mathematical research tool. More importantly, calc provides one with a machine independent means of computation. Calc comes with a rich set of builtin mathematical and programmatic functions. . This package contains architecture independent files required by the main package `apcalc'. Package: apcalc-dev Section: devel Architecture: any Depends: libc6-dev, sensible-utils, ${misc:Depends} Suggests: apcalc Description: Library for arbitrary precision arithmetic This package contains the library libcalc.a and the necessary header files which provide routines to handle arbitrary precision arithmetic with integers, rational numbers, or complex numbers. There are also many numeric functions such as factorial and gcd, along with some transcendental functions such as sin and exp. . This library is also used by the commandline calculator `calc', which is provided in the Debian package `apcalc'.
