Menu

  Choose Accessories Calculator.

Command line

  Execute the following command: `gnome-calculator`

When you start gcalctool, the following window is displayed:

### Calculator 基本模式視窗

Shows gcalctool Basic mode window.

The gcalctool window contains the following elements:

功能表列

  The menus on the menubar contain all of the commands that you need to work with gcalctool.

顯示區域

  The display area shows the numbers that you enter, and the results of calculations. If you are not using arithmetic precedence, you can only enter numbers of up to forty digits.

## 使用

### 使用計算機函數

如果要執行計算，請使用下列任一種 方法：

- 按一下 Calculator 按鈕可以輸入數字和函數。

- 給予 Calculator 視窗焦點，然後使用鍵盤或數字鍵組來指定您要執行的計算。若需鍵盤捷徑的完整清單，請參閱 。

Calculator 應用程式會自動以 40 位數以上和小型字 (如指數) 來顯示數字。例如，下列表格將顯示當使用十進制數值基礎且設定 2 位數的精準度時所顯示的值：

顯示 | 意義
--- | ---
1.23e+37 | 1.23 * 1037
1e-5 | 0.00001

若需如何輸入指數的詳細資訊，請參閱 。

#### To Display a Separator in Large Numbers

To insert a separator between every three digits to the left of the numeric point in decimal base, choose View Show Thousands Separator.

Different countries and cultures have varying conventions for how to communicate. These conventions include the language spoken and the character used as a numeric separator.

gcalctool has been internationalized so user's can adapt to their own conventions. This is done by setting a specific locale. We can't determine what locales will exist, except for a standard one called the C locale.

When you use the C locale, the separator character is not displayed.

#### To Copy and Paste in the Display Area

如果要複製計算的結果，請選擇 編輯複製。 您可以將值貼入其他的應用程式。

如果要將上一次複製的值貼入顯示區域，請選擇 編輯貼上。

### 執行基本計算

Basic mode is displayed by default when you first start gcalctool. To explicitly invoke Basic mode, choose View Basic.

The calculator memory registers are unavailable in Basic Mode. In other words, View Memory Registers is inactive.

#### 執行簡單的計算

如果要執行簡單的計算，請使用 中所述的按鈕。

這一版的 Calculator 不支援常用對數和自然對數。

#### 輸入指數

如果要輸入指數字，請使用 Exp 按鈕。

The Exp button enables you to enter numbers in scientific notation, that is, mantissa * baseexponent:

mantissa

  Current non-zero value in the display area. If the current value in the display area is zero, the mantissa is 1.0.

base

  2, 8, 10, or 16 for binary, octal, decimal, and hexadecimal numeric base respectively.

exponent

  Next number that you enter.

When you click Exp, the calculator displays `. +` to represent base to the power of the next number that you enter.

To change the sign of the number, use the +/- button before the Exp button. How you change the sign of the exponent (the power to which the number is raised) depends on whether you are in arithmetic precedence mode or not. In arithmetic precedence mode, use - after the Exp button, otherwise use the +/- button after entering the exponent.

To enter a decimal number in exponential format, in arithmetic precedence mode, use the guidelines in the following table:

數字 | 輸入 | 顯示的數字
--- | --- | ---
1200000000 | 12 Exp + 8 = | 1200000000
-1200000000 | - 12 Exp + 8 = | -1200000000
0.00000012 | 12 Exp - 8 = | 1.2e-7
-0.00000012 | - 12 Exp - 8 = | -1.2e-7

To enter a decimal number in exponential format, in non-arithmetic precedence mode, use the guidelines in the following table:

數字 | 輸入 | 顯示的數字
--- | --- | ---
1200000000 | 12 Exp 8 = | 1200000000
-1200000000 | 12 +/- Exp 8 = | -1200000000
0.00000012 | 12 Exp 8 +/- | 1.2e-7
-0.00000012 | 12 +/- Exp 8 +/- | -1.2e-7

#### 使用定值

Click Con to display the list of defined constant values. All constant values are specified in decimal numeric base, even if the current numeric base is not decimal.

請從功能表上選取一個常數，將它的值輸入顯示區域。如果您是使用鍵盤捷徑 #，您可以使用鍵盤來指定常數，如下列範例所示：

鍵盤輸入 | 常數
--- | ---
# 3 | C3

## 技術資訊

### 運算順序

By default, calculations are performed using arithmetic precedence. That is, the precedence of the arithmetic operators is taken into consideration and the result is only calculated when you click Return.

In the following example, the result of the calculation is 22 because the multiplication operator, `*`, has precedence over the addition operator, `+`.

    4 + 3 * 6 = 22

If you do not wish to apply arithmetic precedence to your calculations, select View Left-to-right Precedence.

If you choose not to apply arithmetic precedence, then the result the calculation in the example is 42 because the calculation is performed from left to right.

### 錯誤狀況

如果您執行一個無效的計算，Calculator 會指出下列的錯誤狀況：

- 在顯示區域中顯示 `Error` 一字。

- Displays an error message in the status bar.

- 使所有的計算機按鈕無法使用，Clr 除外。

- 使所有的計算機選項無法使用。

- 使所有的計算機功能表項目無法使用，計算機結束和說明內容 除外。

To clear the error condition, click Clr or press ShiftDelete.

### Changing Modes

If the user tries to change modes when a partial calculation is being displayed, a warning dialog is displayed, telling the user that the current calculation will be cleared, and the base will be reset to decimal.

There is a checkbox present, that if checked, prevents the dialog from being shown again.

If the user presses the Cancel button, the change mode operation is cancelled. If the user presses the Change Mode button, the mode is changed and has the following side-effects:

- Clears the display.

- Sets the base to decimal.

- Sets the numeric display to fixed.

- Sets the accuracy to nine places after the numeric point.

- Clears the display of the thousands separator.

- Clears the display of trailing zeroes after the numeric point.

- Dismisses the register window if the new mode is Basic.

### Changing The Display Area

In arithmetic precedence mode, it is possible to use the mouse to click on the display area and edit it.

All the normal keyboard shortcuts will work, plus the addition of:

- CtrlDelete which will delete the character to the right of the text cursor

- Home which moves the text cursor to the beginning of the display area

- End which moves the text cursor to the end of the display area

## 快速參考：鍵盤捷徑
