- Start an interactive session:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`bc`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Start an interactive session with the standard math library enabled:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`bc --mathlib`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Calculate an expression:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`bc --expression='{{5 / 3}}'`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Execute a script:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`bc {{path/to/script.bc}}`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Calculate an expression with the specified scale:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`bc --expression='scale = {{10}}; {{5 / 3}}'`
|
||
|
|
||
|
- Calculate a sine/cosine/arctangent/natural logarithm/exponential function using `mathlib`:
|
||
|
|
||
|
`bc --mathlib --expression='{{s|c|a|l|e}}({{1}})'`
