If your line of work entails performing calculations related to your code, algorithms or data manipulation, then an advanced calculator can speed up your work considerably. Without denying that Windows includes a calculator app, it seems to lack some of the advanced operations typically used in programming.

CalcMaster is a multipurpose tool that can act as a sidekick to help you make various calculations.

The app is console-based, so it may not appeal to most of the average users. Nevertheless, if you are a power user, who prefers commands to GUI, then the tool will feel and look familiar. Once launched, you can type the number corresponding to the type of operation you want to perform.

The app can currently perform six types of operations, namely Arithmetic, Comparison, Logical, Bitwise, Modulus and Matrixes. You can use it in numerous situations to perform basic Math as well as do logical operations involving AND, OR and NOT, for instance.

As a side note, the developer mentions that he may add extra operations in the future, including, but not limited to, random number generator, number properties, Mathematical functions as well as dozens of conversions.

As previously mentioned, the app can be used as a distraction-free assistant in conjunction with other software. Since this is a console tool, it can be helpful when you are using applications that require most of your system resources.

Imagine for a second that you are working on a project that entails transforming 3D objects using matrices. While your main app helps you visualize these transformations, CalcMaster can provide a quick way to verify the calculations as well as other values related to rotation, moving or the size of the objects.
