The following are the changes from calc version 2.11.8.0 to date:
Updated HOWTO.INSTALL to reflect the new RPM files.
Clarify that the internal hash as well as the hash builtin
function used by calc, while based on the Fowler/Noll/Vo
hash is NOT an FNV hash.
Made slight performance improvements to calc by an optimization of how
calc's internal hash is computed. The "make chk" regression test
runs about 1.5% faster (when compiled with -O3 on an AMD Athlon)
NO_HASH_CPU_OPTIMIZATION is not defined. Calc's internal hash values
have not changed. By default, NO_HASH_CPU_OPTIMIZATION is NOT defined
and the slightly faster expression is used.
A slight modification of what was known as the "calc new stardard"
configuration (calc -n or config("all", "newstd")) is now the default
calc configuration. The flag:
calc -O
was added to get the old classic calc configuration. The flag command
line flag, -n, now does nothing. Use of -n is deprecated and may go
away / be used for something else in the future.
The following table gives the summary of these changes:
pre v2.11.8 v2.11.8
default pre v2.11.8 -O & oldstd v2.11.8
and oldstd -n & newstd classic cfg default
--------------------------------------------------------
epsilon 1e-20 1e-10 1e-20 1e-20
quo 2 2 2 2
outround 2 24 2 24
leadzero 0 1 0 1
fullzero 0 1 0 0
prompt > ; > ;
more >> ;; >> ;;
With the exception of epsilon being 1e-20, and fullzero being unset,
the new default calc config is like it was (pre-2.11.8) with calc -n /
config("all", "newstd").
The new default config is the old classic config with outround being
24, leadzero being set, and the prompts being ;'s.
