DozenCalc vs Extended emulator of МК 61/54
Side-by-side comparison of two open source alternatives
DozenCalc
A dozenal (duodecimal, or base-twelve) calculator with both simple and scientific modes. Simple mode (automatically chosen when in portrait orientation) contains the four functions, square roots, exponents, and parentheses for grouping, and operates to four digits of fractional accuracy. Scientific mode (automatically chosen when in landscape orientation) has all of the same features, plus trigonometric functions and their inverses, logarithms, reciprocals, buttons for pi and the base of the natural logarithm, and variable precision allowing the user to select the number of fractional digits desired.
Extended emulator of МК 61/54
МК 61 was the best seller of all USSR programmable calculators of 1980-s (B3-34, MK-54, MK-56, MK-61, MK-52). Calculators are emulated on microcode level so they behave exactly like the original devices, including all non-documented features and inaccurate calculations. For ease of use application features saving and loading emulation states. This app's emulation engine Java code is based on C++ source of Felix Lazarev's emu145 project. Emulation was highly optimized for speed and should run in real time on any phone. It's an extended version of the original emulator МК 61/54 by Stanislav Borutsky (https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.cax.pmk). This version allows to export/import programs from external files and contains some UI improvements. Hint 0: you can found the list of all tips in the About dialog Hint 1: touch calculator's indicator to toggle slow/fast mode. Indicator's blinking looks better in slow mode. Hint 2: you can choose between MK-61 and MK-54 using menu option that becomes visible when calculator is switched off. Hint 3: with the menu "Import" you can import programs from external files, several such programs you can find in https://xvadim.github.io/xbasoft/pmk/pmk.html Hit 4: you can open menu by long tap on the "Вкл" label.
