NAME
|
|
base2 - set 2nd output base
|
|
|
|
SYNOPSIS
|
|
base2([mode])
|
|
|
|
TYPES
|
|
mode real
|
|
|
|
return real
|
|
|
|
DESCRIPTION
|
|
By default, calc will output values according to the default base
|
|
as controlled by the base() builtin function.
|
|
|
|
The base2() builtin function, if given a non-zero argument, enables
|
|
double base output mode. In double base output mode, calc values
|
|
are displayed twice, once according to base() and again according
|
|
to base2(). In double base output mode, the second time a value is
|
|
displayed, it is displayed within comments:
|
|
|
|
21701 /* 0x54c5 */
|
|
|
|
The arguments for base2() are identical to base() with the addition
|
|
of the 0 value:
|
|
|
|
base2 equivalent
|
|
config("mode2")'s
|
|
|
|
2 "binary" base 2 fractions
|
|
"bin"
|
|
|
|
8 "octal" base 8 fractions
|
|
"oct"
|
|
|
|
10 "real" base 10 floating point
|
|
"float"
|
|
"default"
|
|
|
|
-10 "integer" base 10 integers
|
|
"int"
|
|
|
|
16 "hexadecimal" base 16 fractions
|
|
"hex"
|
|
|
|
1/3 "fraction" base 10 fractions
|
|
"frac"
|
|
|
|
1e20 "scientific" base 10 scientific notation
|
|
"sci"
|
|
"exp"
|
|
|
|
1000 "engineering" base 10 notation with exponent
|
|
"eng" multiple of 3
|
|
|
|
0 "off" disable double base output
|
|
|
|
For convenience, any non-integer non-zero value is assumed to mean
|
|
base 10 fractions and any integer >= 2^64 is assumed to mean base 10
|
|
scientific notation.
|
|
|
|
These base2() calls have the same meaning as config("mode2", "fraction"):
|
|
|
|
base2(1/3) base2(0.1415) base2(16/37)
|
|
|
|
These base2() calls have the same meaning as config("mode2", "scientific"):
|
|
|
|
base2(1e20) base2(2^64) base2(2^8191-1)
|
|
|
|
However the base2() function will only return one of the base values
|
|
listed in the table above.
|
|
|
|
EXAMPLE

|
|
131072 /* 0x20000 */
