PEMDAS for Mac supplants the built-in Calculator widget by inserting an advanced scientific calculator right in your Dashboard. It has an appealing interface and rivals OS X's Calculator app in every aspect due to its clarity and ease of use. If you need a powerful and accurate calculator, you will want to check out this app.

After a painless installation, PEMDAS for Mac takes you to the Dashboard, from where you can use it with ease. You will like its digitally authentic design. Much like Apple's Calculator widget, you can use either the graphical interface or the keyboard to perform calculations. PEMDAS features two main views: a calculator view, where you can perform calculations, and an equation history view, where you can review the steps taken to arrive at the current result. One feature that sets the widget apart from other Mac calculators is the automatic labeling of equation results for easier access at a later point. You may even create your own labels to use in subsequent calculations. Another great touch is the ability to switch between different numbering styles like decimal, binary, and engineering in real time, a feature that makes it an impromptu converter, as well.

While there are certainly many calculator apps and widgets out there, PEMDAS for Mac looks like one of the better ones due to its sleek design and thoughtful features. Whether you're an architect, programmer, scientist, mathematician, or student, this widget has much to offer you.

Developer’s Description

Perform various calculations.

PEMDAS is a scientific calculator with an easy-to-use interface for doing calculations with formulas and variables. Next to the info button on the widget is a '+' button that expands the widget to show the formula and variable caches, which give one click access to everything you�??�?�¢�?�¢?�?�¬�?�¢?�?�¢ve done. You can clear the caches by pressing clear on your keyboard twice real fast (shift+delete for notebook users), or double clicking the clear button on the calculator.

In addition, PEMDAS lets you switch between degrees and radians, has support for percentages and most trig, log, and hyperbolic functions, lets you format the answer in scientific and engineering notation, and has a preference for thousands separators. You can also specify the precision of the calculation, and convert between hexadecimal, octal, binary, and decimal.
