DESCRIPTION
mate-calc-cmd is the command-line interface to the MATE calculator, providing an interactive terminal-based calculator session. It uses the same calculation engine as the graphical mate-calc application.The interactive session accepts mathematical expressions and displays results immediately. It supports the same functions and operators as the GUI version, including trigonometry, logarithms, and arbitrary precision arithmetic.Type quit or press Ctrl+D to exit the interactive session.

sudo apt install mate-calc
sudo dnf install mate-calc
sudo pacman -S mate-calc
sudo apk add mate-calc
sudo zypper install mate-calc

CAVEATS
Unlike mate-calc --solve, this command starts an interactive session rather than evaluating a single expression. For one-off calculations in scripts, use mate-calc --solve instead.
