Qalculate! is a multi-purpose cross-platform desktop calculator. It is small and simple to use but with much power and versatility underneath. Features include customizable functions, units, arbitrary precision, plotting, and a user-friendly interface (GTK+ and CLI).

The main focus of Qalculate! version 2.1 is consistent handling of roots of negative numbers and equation solving enhancements.

List of main changes:

  • Highlighting of matching parentheses.
  • Proper display of roots and absolute value.
  • More than 100 additional currencies (using mycurrency.net)
  • Equation solving enhancements.
  • root() and cbrt() now always returns the real root (e.g. cbrt(-8)=-2), while fractional powers return the principal root ((-8)^(1/3)=1+1,73i).
  • Enhanced simplification.
  • Minor bug fixes and feature enhancements.
