Introduction | |||||||||||||||||||
![]() | KALK is a RPN calculator with statistical computation functions. You can upload it into your pilot with your install.exe Application (WinDOS) or with pilot-xfer (Unix) as any other application. Download kalk200.zip. (Under UNIX, use unzip -L to uncompress to get lowercase filenames.) | ||||||||||||||||||
Whats new? | |||||||||||||||||||
![]() | We have color support now. All buttons are now much better legible - even on black and white devices. | ||||||||||||||||||
General Usage | |||||||||||||||||||
![]() | The register you are editing is the 'X' register. One above you have the 'Y' register. You should remember this to understand the labels on some of the buttons. For example: y^x means that you have to type the base and then the exponent. After pressing ENTER the base will move from the X to the Y register and the eponent will be entered into the X register afterwards. | ||||||||||||||||||
Kalk and the Clipboard | |||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
Kalk can Copy the X register into the clipboard as is.
Whenever you Paste from the clipboard, the contents of
the clipboard ist being interpreted as normal keystrokes.
This is only intened to allow copying and pasting of numbers - but you can also paste simple formulas from the clipboard. They have to be in RPN, of course. | ||||||||||||||||||

Statistical Functions (German version) | |||||||||||||||||||
![]() |
You can enter pairs of numbers into KALK on which it tries to
do linear regression analysis. This means that it tries to find
line which approximates the cloud of points you entered.
Well, this is not a course in statistics, but here is a short explanation of the functions anyway:
