Pocket calculator

Logo

 
The pocket calculator can work in two modes. In the normal mode it operates as a regular scientific calculator, whereas in the logic mode it performs logic operations on 1 to 32 bit wide words. Input and output of numbers can be done in any number base from 2 (binary) to 16 (hexadecimal).

This program was written in Borland C++ and it requires some Borland DLL files, that can also be downloaded from this page. Check here for the general conditions of use for my software, and see the program's info option for more details.

Screen dump

The program is not self-installing, so you have to do some work yourself. Start by downloading the ZIP files containing the program and the Borland DLL files to a temporary directory, say C:\temp. Next unzip both files into this directory and delete the two original ZIP files. From here on the procedure becomes slightly operating system dependent.

Under a 16-bit Windows version (Windows 3.1, 3.11) move the files pcalc.exe, pcalc.hlp, bids402.dll, owl202.dll and bc402rtl.dll to a convenient directory, for instance C:\bcpp16.

In the program manager create a new program (pointing to C:\bcpp16\pcalc.exe) in an appropriate program group (for instance in group Accessories). Name this program something like Pocket calculator.

 

Under a 32-bit Windows version (Windows 95, 98, NT) move the files pcalc.exe, pcalc.hlp, bids402.dll, owl202.dll and bc402rtl.dll to a convenient directory, for instance C:\Program Files\BCPP16.

In the start menu create a new shortcut (pointing to C:\Program Files\BCPP16\pcalc.exe) in an appropriate folder (for instance in folder Accessories). Name this shortcut something like Pocket calculator.
