PCalc is an efficient application that helps you perform complex calculations and offers you fast and reliable results. Similar to other programs from the same category, this scientific calculator gives you access to various types of functions, constants and unit conversions.
The interface is intuitive, nicely organized and you can customize its appearance if necessary (from the Style menu). This application was designed with the intention to meet the needs of both novice and professional users, as its interface is really easy-to-use.
I like the fact that PCalc gives access to a wide range of scientific symbols, functions, and constants. Whether you wish to perform a decimal, hexadecimal, octal or binary calculation, any symbol you require can easily be found if you simply click one of the Dec, Hex, Oct or Bin buttons.
A significant advantage of using this scientific calculator is that it also brings you an integrated unit conversion tool which you can use to anything from cooking measures and currency values to pressure rate and weight measurements.
Therefore, if you are looking for an effective calculator, I definitely recommend you to give this application a try. By using this program, you can make difficult calculations and get the results you need almost instantly.
