Calculator


You can use this command to calculate four operations online.
\calculs

The calculation function can be used at the same time with any command that required entering numeric values.
Use the numeric keypad of your keyboard for calculation. You can also use the + - * and /signs.
Type the complete string of operation and then press Enter to display the result.
Using Variables
Once the result is displayed, you can save this value in any of the four variables available a, b, c or d. Type v followed by the variable letter (for example: va or vb or vc or vd).
You can reuse these variables inside any calculation string by combining them with addition, subtraction, multiplication or division operations.
EXAMPLE: Type 20*20 then press Enter. Store the result in ‘a’ variable by typing ’va’ then Enter. Now the value of the ‘a’ is 400. To use this variable in an operation, type, for example, a*a then Enter.. Even this value can be stored in ‘b’ variable by typing‘ ‘vb’ then Enter.. Now the value of the ‘b’ variable is 160 000.
Inserting Surfaces in Calculation String
While calculating, you can query one or more running surfaces.
Type s in the operation, where you want to insert one or more running surfaces. After pressing Enter, the system prompts you to indicate the first polygon. The surface is displayed in the command line. You can indicate more polygons to add their surface to the indicated surface or press Enter to complete the surface input.
EXAMPLE: Type s*2.7 then press Enter. Indicate one or more surface polygons then press Enter.
Inserting Length in Calculation String
While calculating, you can query one or more running lengths.
Type l in the operation, where you want to insert one or more running surfaces. After pressing Enter, the system will prompt you to snap to two points. The length between these points is displayed in the command line. You can continue indicating more lengths to be added to the last length or press Enter to complete the length input.
EXAMPLE: Type l/3 then press Enter. Indicate one or more lengths and then press Enter.
