Purpose

BASCalc is a simple BASIC expression evaluator. It relies on the EVAL statement in BASIC, which is very flexible and should allow most arithmetical expressions to work.

It was inspired by a program called !Calcula, originally written by Iain Logan back in 1992. Thus, I have also implemented some memories (M1 to M6) and Hex, Decimal and Binary conversions. It also understands the variable X which is the result of the last calculation.

BASCalc will also perform a number of simple VAT calculations and you can additionally set the number of decimal places for the display.
