FAQ
Common questions
What is BengalCalc?
BengalCalc is a cross-platform scientific and programmer calculator with algebraic and RPN entry modes for Linux, macOS, and Windows.
What calculator modes are available?
BengalCalc supports two entry modes (Algebraic and RPN) and two layouts (Scientific and Programmer), which can be combined in any combination.
What is RPN mode?
RPN (Reverse Polish Notation) uses a classic 4-level stack (T, Z, Y, X) where you enter operands first and then apply operators, eliminating the need for parentheses.
What scientific functions are supported?
BengalCalc includes trigonometric, inverse trig, hyperbolic, logarithmic, power, root, factorial, and EE (scientific notation) functions, with a 2nd key for alternate operations.
What programmer operations are supported?
The programmer layout includes AND, OR, XOR, NOR, NOT, NEG, shift, rotate, modulo, and byte/word flip operations on 64-bit integers with octal, decimal, and hexadecimal bases.
What display formats are available?
BengalCalc supports Auto, Fixed, Scientific, and Engineering display formats with configurable precision from 0–15 decimal places.
Which platforms are supported?
BengalCalc is built with Electron and supports Linux, macOS, and Windows, including x64 and ARM64 builds.
I'm having trouble downloading on Windows!
Microsoft Edge and Microsoft Defender make it very difficult to download software from the internet these days. See this page for instructions on how to download and install perfectly safe and free software from the internet.
Do I need a license for each computer?
No, you only need one license that is good for all platforms and all computers that you as an individual own. Send an email to Glowing Cat Software for information about commercial licenses.
Is BengalCalc open source?
Yes. BengalCalc source is available under the GPL 3.0 license.
Can I download and use BengalCalc without a license?
Yes, purchasing a license is optional, but it helps support open source software development.
