Hi! I’m glad you like it. I’ve finally gotten around to implementing some of the feature requests, and I added support for omitting the leading zero on decimals (e.g. .6 instead of 0.6). I think I also addressed what @ikidd@lemmy.world was referring to, if you press add/subtraction/multiplication/division/exponent as the first button, it will automatically add ans, which is the result of the previous expression. But this meant I had to add a separate button for a negative sign, otherwise you could never type e.g. “-1”, it would always be “ans-1”. This is how a physical calculator worked that I used in school, but I’m interested in feedback from you/others.
You can try the latest dev branch of the web version here: https://alexbarry.net/dev/calc/2025-01-12/
(code in the dev branch of the github repo).
I put off working on the calculator for a while because I didn’t know many people were using it. The Google Play version barely has any users, and I can’t tell how many people are actually using the F-Droid version.
Anyway I want to test it for a week or so, then I’ll probably update the github pages and F-Droid versions.
Oh yeah I realize you weren’t talking about mine, I just wasn’t sure which limitation @TheFinn@discuss.tchncs.de was referring to about mine, if it was the
.6thing or the “can’t operate on previous expression result” limitation (or possibly I misunderstood that one).I fixed both but I was curious to know what is more important. It’s hard to get a sense of what people are looking for in my apps since I don’t have any telemetry or anything like that. There are plenty of features that I’d like to add (and other projects I’d like to work on), but I don’t have enough time, so I’m trying to prioritize.
