Scientific Calculator

Our scientific calculator supports a wide range of operations including:

• Basic arithmetic operations (addition, subtraction, multiplication, division)
• Trigonometric functions (sine, cosine, tangent) in both radians and degrees
• Logarithmic functions (natural log, log base 10)
• Exponential functions (e^x, x^y)
• Constants (π, e)
• Factorial calculations
• Memory functions for storing and recalling values

The calculator provides accuracy up to 15 decimal places for most calculations, which is sufficient for most scientific, engineering, and academic purposes. For very complex calculations involving extremely large or small numbers, there may be minor rounding errors due to the limitations of floating-point arithmetic in JavaScript.

RAD (radians) and DEG (degrees) are different units for measuring angles:

• Radians (RAD): The standard unit in mathematics and physics. A full circle is 2π radians (approximately 6.28).
• Degrees (DEG): More commonly used in everyday contexts. A full circle is 360 degrees.

When performing trigonometric calculations (sin, cos, tan), the mode determines how the calculator interprets your angle inputs. Scientists and engineers often use radians, while degrees are more common in navigation and basic geometry.

The calculator includes several memory functions:

• M+: Adds the current displayed value to the memory
• M-: Subtracts the current displayed value from the memory
• MR: Memory Recall - displays the current value stored in memory
• MC: Memory Clear - resets the memory to zero

The current memory value is displayed in the top-right corner of the calculator as "M: [value]".
