Calculator is an application that solves mathematical equations and is suitable as a default application in a Desktop environment.

What Calculator is:

• A tool for calculating mathematical equations
• Uses standard mathematical notation where possible (so users do not have to learn the application when they already know maths)
• Easy enough to use for simple maths (add, subtract, multiply, divide)
• Powerful enough for mid-level mathematics (though not at the expense of being easy for simple mathematics)
• Fast to load and responsive to input
• Appropriately sized to fit into standard screen resolutions (e.g. netbooks)
• Fully accessible
• Well documented
• Integrated into the GNOME Desktop

What Calculator is not:

• Itu tidak meniru antarmuka kalkulator, perangkat keras atau perangkat lunak yang ada (gunakan kalkulator tersebut jika Anda menginginkan perilaku ini)
• Ini bukan alat yang ampuh untuk matematikawan profesional (profesional harus menggunakan aplikasi khusus)
• Ini bukan bahasa pemrograman (pemrogram harus menggunakan bahasa pemrograman)
