Copy Helpers

Copy helpers are transformations performed on text that you paste. For example, it makes it easy to copy text out of the watch window in Visual Studio and automatically create variables in the calculator.

Floats vs. Ints

What kind of precision to expect and how the math is performed under the hood. Maybe a few notes about how coercion is performed.

Formatting

How formatting is performed on the output. Maybe a few tricks to improve your ability to get the output you want.

Functions

Sin, cos, sqrt, etc... These are all the built in functions of the calculator.

Hotkeys

Keys to make your life easier. Did you know you can click on an answer and it will automatically copy to the clipboard? Well now you do, and you can learn even more in the hotkeys section.

Scripting

Scripting is totally a thing now in the calculator. Tired of typing that same set of functions over and over? Well now you can make it a single function.

Syntax

How to type stuff into the calculator. What constitutes a valid statement and how to get the answers you want. You want vectors? You got vectors. You want hex? You got hex. Binary? Forget about it. It will hopefully help you to find an input you want to get the result you want.

Variables

Creating a variable is as easy as x=3, now on every subsequent line you can use x like you would pi. We also got some built in variables, like pi and g. Variables turn the calculator from meh to whoa.
