nopf

nopf (Numbers, Operators, Functions) is an interactive, command-line expression evaluator.

nopf can be useful if you work with hexadecimal often employing bit shifts and masks. It supports pretty formatting of some common x86/x64 register. It shows the results as 32-bit and 64-bit unsigned integer in decimal, octal, hexadecimal and binary radices.

nopf supports several built-in functions and variables. You can also define arbitrary variables as expressions and use them in the calculation of subsequent expressions.

Features

  • Performs separate integer and floating-point math for every operation.

  • Interactive mode with colored output.

  • Auto-completion on *nix platforms that support libreadline in interactive mode.

  • Support for user-defined constants.

  • Support for input and output in hex, oct, decimal and binary.

  • Bit shifts, alignment and other bitwise operations.

  • Pretty printing of some x86/amd64 registers with description of bits.

  • Unit of measure conversions for common units like pages to bytes, gigabits to bits etc.

  • Basic statistics like sum, avg, lcd, gcd.
