By sheer accident, I found when using the Calcuator app on my iPhone, it becomes a scientific calculator (more functions, more precision) when you rotate the phone.

This is elegantly beautiful.


Some days I feel arithmetic and other days I just want to cosh π x!

    Did Apple ever fix that division by zero error? I had an algebra student last semester that insisted that division by zero = 0 because their iPhone told them so.

    Yeah, isn’t that funny about the calculator? I’d had the iPhone for over a year and never even used the calculator. Saw that tilt/tip in a top ten iPhone secrets type of post a month or so ago. Had no idea. :-)
