Command-Line Calculations Using bc

“If like me, you do most of your work from the command-line, using vim to edit files, mutt for e-mails, cd/ls/mv/find/etc instead of a file manager, then you may get annoyed by having to fire up a GUI calculator to make (what may sometimes be) a single calculation. This article shows how to quickly perform standard calculations on the command line.”
