Its syntax is similar to C, but differs in many substantial areas. It supports interactive execution of statements. 'Bc' is a utility included in the POSIX P1003.2/D11 draft standard. This version does not use the historical method of having bc be a compiler for the dc calculator (the POSIX document doesn't specify how bc must be implemented). This version has a single executable that both compiles the language and runs the resulting 'byte code.' The byte code is not the dc language.<br /> |User level=none<br /> |Status=Live<br /> |Component programs=GNU,dc<br /> |Homepage URL=http://www.gnu.org/software/bc/manual/bc.html<br /> |VCS checkout command=<br /> |Computer languages=C<br /> |Documentation note=User reference manual available from http://www.gnu.org/software/bc/manual/html_mono/bc.html<br /> |Paid support=<br /> |IRC help=<br /> |IRC general=<br /> |IRC development=<br /> |Related projects=Dr_genius,Genius,Yorick,Octave<br /> |Keywords=mathematics,statistics,algebra,precision numbers,bc<br /> |Is GNU=y<br /> |Last review by=Janet Casey<br /> |Last review date=2008-12-14<br /> |Submitted by=Database conversion<br /> |Submitted date=2011-04-01<br /> |Version identifier=1.06<br /> |Version date=2001-03-18<br /> |Version status=stable<br /> |Version download=http://ftp.gnu.org/pub/gnu/bc/bc-1.06.tar.gz<br /> |License verified date=2001-01-31<br /> |Version comment=1.06 stable released 2001-03-18<br /> }}<br /> {{Person<br /> |Role=Maintainer<br /> |Real name=Phil Nelson<br /> |Email=phil@cs.wwu.edu<br /> |Resource URL=<br /> }}<br /> {{Resource<br /> |Resource audience=Bug Tracking<br /> |Resource kind=E-mail<br /> |Resource URL=mailto:bug-bc@gnu.org<br /> }}<br /> {{Software category<br /> |Interface=command-line,console<br /> |Mathematics=statistics<br /> |Use=mathematics<br /> }}<br /> {{Project license<br /> |License=GPLv2orlater<br /> |License verified by=Janet Casey<br /> |License verified date=2001-01-31<br /> }}</div>
