[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:14:14] <physos> lauri: looking at this, kcalc emulates a simple "scientific calculator" adding to the braindead concept of not using a computers abilities. 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:14:22] <apokryphos> (though, surely impressed by me replying quickly to the answer and pretending I didn't use a calculator) 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:14:31] <physos> lauri: I have no idea what he means with the miscalculations. 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:14:55] <physos> lauri: The statistics stuff he describes, works as he says: 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:14:58] <apokryphos> He says, "these exist -- but they don't [for me]" 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:15:04] <physos>    1. Type in the first value 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:15:18] <physos> 2. Use "Dat" to add it to list 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:15:34] <physos> 3. repeat 1. and 2. until you added all values 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:16:06] <physos> Use the buttons above to calculate mean value and standard derivation. 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:16:18] <physos> no way to edit the values you did put in. 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:16:33] <physos> ^^^^^^^^ this part makes this braindead on a computer. 
[Thu Apr 7 2005] [18:16:53] <physos> better rip it out and tell people to use kspread for statistics.
