NAME
       EasyCalc - Scientfic calcualtor for Palm's

REQUIREMENTS
       Palm  or  PalmPilot  with  at  least  PalmOS 2.0 and about
       70-110K of free memory, plus 50K for MathLib.

INSTALLATION
       Install files MathLib.prc and one  of  other  'calc *.prc'
       files.  These other files are all versions of one program,
       but usually without some features, because space  on  Palm
       is  a valuable resource and some people may want to sacri-
       fice   features   for   space.   Currently   there    are:
       calc_all.prc,  calc_small.prc (no graphs, no special func-
       tions) and calc_graph.prc (graphs, but  no  special  func-
       tions).

       If  you  already  have  some  older  version  of  EasyCalc
       installed, please remove it before installing this version
       -  you may experience weird behaviour if you don't because
       some of the data format  changed.  Starting  from  version
       1.02  I no longer use LibEasy, because I got new prc-tools
       and I can create larger binaries. Please,  remove  LibEasy
       from  your  Pilot  (if  you  can't  find it in the list of
       applications, try CalcDB-OpCl, it sometimes gets renamed),
       you  would  be  wasting  space if you didn't.  I'm neither
       author nor maintainer of MathLib, so if you have questions
       about  this  library, look at http://www.probe.net/~rhueb-
       ner/mathlib.html.

BUGS
       Due to floating point implementation in computers you will
       probably experience some differences when adding/subtract-
       ing a larger number from a smaller one (e.g. 1-1E-15).  It
       is  all  the same on all calculaters I have ever seen, you
       will have to get used to it..

       Many thanks to Rafael R. Sevilla <dido@pacific.net.ph> who
       added many mathematic functions I do not know.

       Some small portion of code is from <Antonio.FIOL@enst-bre-
       tagne.fr> who helped me to add PYR support.

       And of course there are other people who  sent  sugestions
       and corrections to the tutorial.
