Hey there, if you’re into programming or just need a handy tool for various calculations, I’ve got something cool to share. Back during my BSc in IT, I created this advanced calculator using C++. It’s not your basic add-and-subtract kind; it handles a wide range of operations from algebra to geometry and more. Let me walk you through what it offers.
The idea was to build a single program that could tackle different types of math problems efficiently. I developed it in C++ to apply what I was learning in class, and it turned out to be a practical little app with a straightforward interface. You can input values and get results quickly without any hassle.
Here’s a breakdown of the features, grouped by category:
Arithmetical Operations
These cover the essentials and some extras for everyday math:
- Addition
- Subtraction
- Multiplication
- Division
- Average
- Check if a number is even or odd
- Check if a number is prime
- Solve quadratic equations
- Square root
- Power (exponentiation)
- Root (any root of a number)
- Factorial
- Permutation
- Combination
Geometrical Calculations
Perfect for figuring out areas, volumes, and other shape-related stuff:
- Square
- Sphere
- Hemisphere
- Cone
- Cube
- Cuboid
- Circle
- Trapezium
- Rhombus
- Rectangle
- Triangle
- Solid cylinder
- Hollow cylinder
- Parallelogram
Statistical Functions
For basic data analysis:
- Correlation
- Mean
- Average (similar to mean, but included for convenience)
Commercial Tools
Handy for financial quick checks:
- Simple interest
- Compound interest
- Profit and loss
Trigonometrical Operations
To handle angles and sides:
- Calculate sine, cosine, etc., using diagonals
- Sine, cosine, tangent, and their inverses for given angles
I included screenshots in the original post to show how it looks in action—think a simple console interface where you select options and enter numbers. If you’re interested in trying it out, you can download the RAR file from the link (though check for updates on my site).
This project was a great way to blend theory with real coding. If you have questions or want to build something similar, feel free to reach out!
