Using the calculator in the terminal

Hi to all, this is a small issue I had the last days. Use a calculator in the terminal. I have been working and sometimes need to do an arithmetic operation so I decided to open  calc (Ubuntu Calculator Default). But I was wondering, there has to be a way to use a calculator in the CLI. So after some search in the engine I found this question in Ask Ubuntu and tried several options.

I will only write about the  best solution I found for my needs. In the question, you can find several solutions and probably you will find a different solution that will be best for you.

CALC (Arbitrary precision calculator)

Calc is an arbitrary precision arithmetic system that uses a C-like language. Calc is useful as a calculator, an algorithm prototyper and as a mathematical research tool. More importantly, calc provides one with a machine independent means of computation. Calc comes with a rich set of builtin mathematical and programmatic functions.

If you want to install calc you can use the following command:

sudo apt-get install apcalc

Create accordions with CSS3

Well I needed to create some accordions just with CSS + HTML. No Javascript was allowed in this project.

Sharing the link of an excellent tutorial I found for this, written by Mary Lou.

Hope it helps you

Somos soñadores y no ganadores

Este 13 de Agosto del 2016 de mala suerte no ha tenido nada. Después de llevar una clase toda una mañana sobre manejar los conflictos en proyectos ágiles, sentarme y pasar a papel una idea que ya días estaba en la cabeza, la clasificación a semifinales de la selección olímpica me puse a pensar que nosotros los hondureños no somos personas ganadoras. Son pocos o nulos los triunfos a nivel internacional que tenemos, en deporte, ciencia, arte, etc. Pero hay algo que todo catracho tiene. Es un soñador.  Siempre tiene una sueño que seguir, y si se propone lo logra. El problema es trabajarlo, luchar por el, pero si logra superar eso, nadie nos detiene.
