System requirements iMalc runs under Mac OS 7.1 and later. It may work on earlier system versions. iMalc has been tested on a PowerBook G3 and iMac running Mac OS 8.5.1, a G3, iMac and 4400 running 8.6, a 7100/80 running 7.5.3 and a Colour Classic running 7.1. It requires approximately 5Mb of RAM with virtual memory turned off or 4.5Mb of RAM with virtual memory turned on, and 3.5Mb of hard drive space. You can get by with 3Mb of RAM, but if you cycle through all the flavours, you will need 5Mb of RAM.

Introduction iMalc is a fully featured scientific calculator designed to replace the standard Apple calculator. It offers more functions and allows you to customise its appearance to complement your flavour of iMac, iBook, PowerBook, G3, G4 or platinum Mac. iMalc features include 18 mathematical functions in addition to the basic operators and a saveable memory.
Introduction iMalc remembers the value stored in memory, the flavour and window position on quitting. Versions of iMalc are available for Macintosh PowerPC, 68k and fat binary (runs on both PPC and 68k). A Windows version will be available soon for those who love Macs but have to use Wintel boxes and wish to make a statement :-) iMalc is shareware and costs just £10/US$15.
Quick Start Quick Start If youÕre in a hurry to start using iMalc and donÕt want to read the manual at this stage then here are some quick start instructions. Calculator operation iMalc is easy to use and works similar to any other calculator that you might have used. The logic employed is algebraic rather than Reverse Polish Notation (RPN). This means that to do a calculation such as 15+2=17, you enter it as seen. You would enter 15, followed by +, followed by 2 and then the equals.
Quick Start Hidden functions To obtain further functions press and hold the option key. In general, the function obtained is the inverse of the normal one x eg sin becomes arcsine, log natural (ln) becomes e , square root 2 becomes x . The M+ key becomes the M- key, subtracting the displayed value from the memory, and MR becomes CM, clearing the memory. The C key becomes CE, which will clear the last entry, but not totally clear the calculator.
Quick Start Using the keyboard You can also use the keyboard to operate the calculator. The standard number and keypad keys work, as do the operator and backspace. Return and Enter also act as the equals key. Comma also functions as the decimal separator in addition to point (dot). All of the functions except the memory are accessible via the keyboard too.
Quick Start INF means infinity, and can be obtained through erroneous operators such as division by zero. NANs are Not A Number and are other error codes, generally for numbers which are out of range, such as trying to take the arcsine of 100. The numbers in brackets sometimes following NANs are specific error codes and are listed later in this manual. Preferences file iMalc uses a preferences file to store certain values, including the current flavour, the window position and the contents of the memory.
Interface In common with most Macintosh applications, iMalc has a familiar interface that consists of icons, windows and menus and conforms to the Apple Human Interface Guidelines. Although the main calculator has one window, there are other windows, such as the About Box and Registration window, that can be called up. The menu layout is also fairly simple, with just one additional menu, Flavour, added to the standard Apple, File, Edit and Help menus.
Interface Windows Interface When you double-click on iMalc for the first time to start up the application, the first window you see is a Welcome screen: 8 This screen offers you a choice of three buttons to press, Register Now, Register Later and Try iMalc. If you wish to register straight away, press the Register Now button. That option will take you on to the Register screen.
Interface After you have dismissed the Welcome screen, you are presented with the main iMalc calculator window in the default flavour of Blueberry: The close box at the upper left of the title bar will not only close the window, but quit iMalc. The windowshade box on the top right of the title bar will reduce the window to just the title bar: Clicking on the windowshade box again will expand the window back to normal size.
Interface Interface There are other windows that you can call up at any time. If you choose About iMalc from the Apple menu, you are presented with the About Box screen: 10 The About Box gives you some very basic information about iMalcÕs features. The About Box will reflect your choice of flavour. It contains two buttons, Register and OK. Pressing Register will take you to the Register screen and the OK button will dismiss the About Box.
Interface informative as this manual. The iMalc Help window looks like this: You can scroll down the contents in the box on the right to read the help. Double click on a topic on the left to go to the online Help for that topic.
Interface The Contacts and Credits window has buttons down the left: Interface The top button is the default, and shows the version number, email and website addresses for Eyecatcher. You can double click on the email address to launch your email client and open a blank email mailto: message, or on the website URL to launch your browser and go to the Eyecatcher website.
Interface lists the names of the beta testers who helped test and debug the first version of iMalc. There are two other windows that you will see, the Reminder window and the Registration window. After a while, you will start to see the Reminder window pop up at start up and when you quit. It is a reminder to pay the shareware fee: Interface It gives you details of the number of times you have used iMalc, and the total time you have been using it.
Interface Interface The Registration window has some very brief instructions on how to pay, using the Register iMalc program that comes with iMalc. There are three buttons, I Paid, Register and OK. The OK button dismisses the window. The Register button will open the Register iMalc application for you to fill in your registration details. See later in this manual for full details on how to use Register iMalc. 14 The I Paid button is for when you have registered iMalc and paid the shareware fee.
Interface Menus The menus in iMalc follow the Apple standard as outlined in AppleÕs Human Interface Guidelines, with only one addition to the standard Apple set of Apple menu, File menu, Edit menu, and Help menu: the Flavour menu. They run from left to right: Apple, File, Edit, Flavour and Help. Under the Apple menu at the top is the About iMalc menu item: Choosing this item will open up the About iMalc window, previously described.
Interface The Undo menu item is effectively the same as the CE, clear last entry, key. It will clear the last operand input, but not the calculation total or previous entry. It will not undo the last calculation. See the chapter on Calculator Operation for further details. The Cut, Copy and Paste items are available in the Calculator window and the Copy item in the Help window.
Interface Depending on your choice of flavour, both the About iMalc menu item in the Apple menu, and the iMalc Help items will change their name to reflect your flavour choice. For example if you choose G3 the items will change to About G3Calc and G3Calc Help respectively. The final menu is the Help menu: The first two items are Apple standards: About Balloon Help... which calls up the system info on Balloon Help, and Show Balloons, which turns on Balloon Help. This item is a toggle.
Calculator Operation iMalc is easy to use and looks like, and works similar to, any other calculator that you might have used. You can click on the buttons, or use the keyboard to operate iMalc.
Calculator Operation In addition, more functions can be obtained by holding down the Option (Alt), key: xy key x 10 key Trignometry inverse functions ex key Memory keys ¹ (Pi) key Clear last entry key x2 (Square) key 1Úx (inverse) key Thus the sine (sin) key becomes arcsine, the cosine (cos) key becomes arccosine, the tangent (tan) key becomes arctangent, x the logarithm base10 (log) key becomes 10 , the natural logarithm (ln) key becomes e x, the square root (Ã) becomes a square key, x 2, and the

This means that to do a calculation such as 15+2=17, you enter it as seen, or as you would when writing an algebraic equation.
Calculator Operation Or you can use the +/- before entering the number: Press 1 Press 0 Press 0 Press x Press +/Press 2 Press = When employing the % key, you do not need to press equals key, just the operator key eg 100+20% will give 120. 200 x 20% will give 40. The C key will totally clear the calculator. The running total is always remembered until the C key is pressed. eg if you enter 15+2=17 then press 12+ the answer will be 29. You can use the delete key to backspace one character.
Calculator Operation The last two keys are the yth root of x and (with option key y down) x (x to the power y). To use these keys enter the x value first, then press the key. You will be prompted to enter the y root or power, and when youÕve done so, press equals to get the result. Unlike many calculators, iMalc lets you correctly determine odd number integer roots of negative numbers. The display Memory indicator Trig mode indicator Also in the display, on the left hand side are two indicators.
Calculator Operation The operand is the number to be operated on when the next operator key is pressed, and is effectively the number currently in the display. An operator key is any one of +, -, Ö, x, or =, or any of the mathematical function keys such as log or sin. Clear in the edit menu will act like the C button and completely clear the calculator. Calculator Operation You can also drag and drop numerical values on to the display from other applications.
Calculator Operation All of the functions except the memory are accessible via the keyboard too. Log base 10 is L, natural logs is N, percent is P, +/- is M, sin is S, cosine is C, tangent is T, square root is R, yth root of x is Y, and clear is X or Escape. You obtain the inverse functions in the same way as the buttons, by holding down the option key and selecting the appropriate key, eg Option-S is arcsine.
Flavours Flavours Changing iMalc's appearance is easy. Simply choose your flavour from the Flavour menu. Or use the shortcut keys. The flavours of iMalc available are original Bondi Blue, Blueberry, Grape, Lime, Strawberry, Tangerine and Graphite Special Edition. In addition you can also choose G3Calc, G4Calc, two flavours of PowerBook including the Bronze keyboard Lombard G3s, Blueberry, Tangerine and Graphite flavours of iBook, and if you have an older Mac, standard platinum MacCalc.

Technical Considerations There are various technical considerations that should be borne in mind when using a computer to perform mathematical calculations. Most of the following has been gleaned from AppleÕs Inside Macintosh series of books, available via AppleÕs web site or in print form from Addison-Wesley. Apple Macintosh computers that use the PowerPC chip (601, 603, 603e, 604, 604e and 750 [G3] microprocessors) use PowerPC Numerics as a floating point environment for mathematical computation.
Technical Considerations as binary floating-point numbers. Binary floating-point numbers can represent real numbers exactly in relatively few cases; in all other cases the representation is approximate. For example, 1/2 (0.5 in decimal) can be represented exactly in binary as 0.1. Other real numbers that can be represented exactly in decimal have repeating digits in binary and hence cannot be represented exactly, as shown below. For example, 1/10, or decimal 0.1 exactly, is 0.000110011 . . . in binary.
Technical Considerations ■ If an invalid input is provided or if the result cannot be represented exactly, a floating-point exception must be raised. Careful Rounding If the result of an IEEE arithmetic operation cannot be represented exactly in binary format, the number is rounded. IEEE arithmetic normally rounds results to the nearest value that can be represented in the chosen data format. The difference between the exact result and the represented result is the roundoff error.
Technical Considerations Exception Handling The IEEE standard defines five exceptions that indicate when an exceptional event has occurred. They are ■ invalid operation ■ underflow ■ overflow ■ division by zero ■ inexact result There are three ways an application can deal with exceptions: ■ Continue operation. ■ Stop on exceptions if the programmer thinks they will invalidate results. ■ Include code to do something special when exceptions happen.
Technical Considerations blocks in numerical functions. The transcendental functions include the usual logarithmic and exponential functions, as well as ln(1+x) and ex-1; financial functions for compound interest and annuity calculations; trigonometric functions; error and gamma functions; and a random number generator. PowerPC Numerics Versus SANE Although PowerPC Numerics is an implementation of the IEEE Standard, it is not the Standard Apple Numerics Environment (SANE).
Technical Considerations each data format have a sign bit (s), an exponent field (e), and a fraction field (f). For each format, it lists requirements for the minimum lengths of these fields. For example, the standard describes a 32-bit single format whose exponent field must be 8 bits long and whose fraction field must be 23 bits long. The only required data format is the 32-bit single format. A 64bit double format is strongly recommended.
Technical Considerations where ± significand exponent bias is the sign stored in the sign bit (1 is negative, 0 is positive). has the form b0.b1b2b3. . . bprecision-1 where b1b2b3. . . bprecision-1 are the bits in the fraction field and b0 is an implicit bit whose value is interpreted as described in the sections ÒNormalized NumbersÓ and ÒDenormalized NumbersÓ below. The significand is sometimes called the mantissa. is the value of the exponent field. is the bias of the exponent.
Technical Considerations Denormalized Numbers Instead of using only normalized numbers and allowing this small gap around 0, PowerPC processor-based Macintosh computers use denormalized numbers, in which the leading implicit bit, b0, of the significand is 0 and the minimum exponent is used.
Technical Considerations NaNs When a numeric operation cannot produce a meaningful result, the operation delivers a special bit pattern called a NaN (Not-aNumber). For example, zero divided by zero, +° added to -°, and Ã-1 yield NaNs. A NaN can occur in any of the numeric data formats (single, double, and double-double), but generally, system-specific integer types (non-numeric types exclusively for integer values) have no representation for NaNs.
Technical Considerations extreme negative underflows yield -0, expressions like 1/x3 produce the correct sign for ° when x is tiny and negative. Addition and subtraction produce -0 only in these cases: (-0) - (+0) yields -0 (-0) + (-0) yields -0 When rounding downward, with x finite, x-x yields -0 x+(-x) yields -0 The square root of -0 is -0. The sign of zero is important in complex arithmetic (Kahan 1987). iMalc will convert any display of -0 or +0 to read 0.
Technical Considerations iMalc Manual -° -° NaN +° NaN NaN +0 -° -° NaN +° NaN 0 +0 -0 NaN NaN NaN -1 1 1 NaN NaN NaN 0 +° Note: iMalc will return 1.
Technical Considerations atan(NaN) atan(+°) atan(-°) NaN ¹/2 -¹/2 Error codes You may occasionally see some error codes whilst using iMalc. You will get the warning 'imaginary' if you try to take the square root of a negative number. You will also see NAN, often followed by a number in brackets, or INF. Technical Considerations INF means infinity, and can be obtained through erroneous operators such as division by zero.

Registration Registration This section covers registration issues, such as the shareware concept, pricing, how to register and methods of payment. You must register iMalc and pay the shareware fee if you intend to continue using iMalc. Shareware Shareware is effectively try before you buy. This means that you can try the software free for a trial period before deciding whether you want to keep on using the software. A period of 30 days is reasonable.
Registration Pricing The following software licenses are available: Single user licenses: No of copies Price 1-9 US$15 (£10) per copy 10-19 US$12 per copy 20+ US$10 per copy Site license: US$300 (roughly equal to 30 users) A Site License covers all locations for your organization within a 160 kilometre radius of your site (100 miles). The big advantage of a Site License is that you do not need to keep track of how many people at your site are using the software.
Registration Registering Registering is very easy. You can register and pay online, by email, fax or post. To handle registrations we use the Kagi Software registration service. The big advantage for you and us is if you have a credit card you can register immediately and being in a different country is no problem no matter how you decide to pay.
Registration Payment Instructions Kagi handles payments from customers around the world and forwards payments on to software authors around the world. Kagi represents many thousands of software authors and has designed an automated system to keep registrations as speedy and fuss-free as possible. If you wish to register online with a credit card see left for details. Otherwise, whatever method you choose to pay by, you will need to use the Register iMalc program that came with iMalc.
Registration and complete the relevant information (credit card number, type of currency, etc.) below. Make checks payable to ÒKagiÓ. Checks must be in US Dollars only. Checks in other currencies are not accepted, solely because the bank processing costs involved make it impractical. Please write the program name on the check as well as your email address, if you have one. ** Note: Your credit card data is scrambled. Although this is not completely secure, Kagi have never had a case of credit card fraud.
