Numberneed

Granted, if you need to perform simple mathematical functions, then you should have no problem using the standard calculator in Windows. However, in case you need to do more advanced expressions or statistical operations, then it is recommended that you turn to specialized tools.

Numberneed is a small piece of software that enables you to perform a wide variety of advanced mathematical expressions, including statistics, hyperbolic and inverse trigonometry.

The application does not require setup, but rather you can decompress and use the tool as soon as you download it to your computer. Upon launch, you come face to face with a small window and you can begin typing the mathematical expression that you want to calculate. In the eventuality that you are unsure about the correct syntax for the expressions or functions, then do not hesitate to check out the Help file as you can find comprehensive information about this.

As far as the functionality is concerned, getting the result is a simple operation of typing the expression and then hitting the Enter key. The function supported by the tool include logarithmic, converting degrees, trigonometry, inverse trigonometry, hyperbolic trigonometry, inverse hyperbolic trigonometry, statistic and arithmetic.

As a side note, the program includes a few cosmetic options that enable you to modify the colors for the background and font, change the font style as well as the format.

It is worth mentioning that the application also supports variables, both pre-defined and user-defined. In case you want to use the latter, then you should bear in mind that a variable name must begin with a letter of the underscore character and that it can only contain alpha numeric characters and underscores without any spaces.

Numberneed need is an easy to use program that comes with a clean and intuitive interface and that can come in handy to statisticians, numerical analysts and other professionals who work with numbers.
