Crimson Editor is equiped with a calculator that can evaluate simple expressions.
If you want to calculate a simple expression, use Crimson Editor built-in calculator to get the answer quickly.
Following examples show how to use Crimson Editor built-in calculator.
1. Type in the expression you want to evaluate in Crimson Editor.
(The whole expression should be written in one line)
2. Press Ctrl+Enter to calculate the expression
when the caret is in the line of expression.
i.e.
3.14 * (2.43 + 0.91) <– press Ctrl+Enter when the caret is in the line of expression
= 10.487600 <– you will get the answer immediately
If you want to use the value that was evaluated in the earler step, use a special variable named $ans.
There is another built-in variable named $pi, and the value of the variable $pi is 3.1415926535.
$ans / $pi
= 3.338307
