gh-bc
To build ./configure make sudo cp bin/bc /usr/bin/ghbc
Man, just feels nicer. rand() maxrand()
ghbc -l: include math functions, like log, sin
gnu bc
--standard: Process exactly the POSIX bc language. Could define my own rng, and use arrays to do the seed thing
Usage
Numbers are arbitrary precision numbers
length ( expression ) scale (expression) scale=100 define t(x) { return(2); }
Apparently posix bc only has one-letter functions, lol Extensions needed: multi-letter functions
Decisions, decisions
Maybe target gh-bc, and then see about making it POSIX complicant later?
Decide between GH's bc, POSIX bc, and gnu bc
- Start with POSIX for now
- Can't do POSIX, one letter functions are too annoying
