Welcome to the Abacus project website.
|
||||
This website is currently under construction, please, check
|
||||
back later.
|
||||
## So... what IS Abacus?
|
||||
It's a calculator. Obviously. But what makes it better than
|
||||
what already exists? There's a few things. Abacus is:
|
||||
* Programmable, and not in TI Basic.
|
||||
* Precise. With the "precise" option, Abacus can keep up to 50 significant figures.
|
||||
* Capable. Ever wonder what 2<sup>700</sup> is? How about 8!!? Abacus can tell you!
|
||||
* Offline. While Wolfram Alpha can do powerful math, it needs internet connection!
|
||||
* Built for the desktop. Why use buttons on the screen when there's buttons on the keyboard?
|
||||
* Open source. Don't like something? Help is always welcome!
|
||||
|
||||
## Why was Abacus made?
|
||||
The initial project was proposed for the [Northwest Advanced Programming Workshop](http://nwapw.org/about/).
|
||||
You can read the project proposal on the main GitHub page, although the idea has
|
||||
changed quite a bit, mostly in shifting from "fast" to "precise".
|
||||
|
||||
## What is Abacus made with?
|
||||
Java and Kotlin. Java provides a good layer of abstraction and a great standard
|
||||
library, while Kotlin allows for the reduction of boilerplate code and null
|
||||
safety. Using JVM-based languages also allows Abacus to expose its entire
|
||||
API to plugins, and load them at runtime.
