Calculator Search App

The Calculator Search App lets you perform quick calculations directly from Fluent Search. It's designed for lightweight math during your workflow — arithmetic, percentages, hexadecimal and binary conversions, and more — without opening a separate calculator application.

What it does

Type a math expression into Fluent Search and the Calculator instantly evaluates it, showing the result directly in the search results list.

Supported operations

Feature Example Notes
Basic arithmetic 1024 * 768, 12.5 / 3 Addition, subtraction, multiplication, division
Percentages 15% of 2499, 20% * 500 Percentage calculations
Parentheses (100 + 50) * 2 Grouping with parentheses
Exponents 2^10 Power operations
Logarithms log(100) = 2, ln(100) ≈ 4.605 log() is base-10, ln() is natural log (compatible with Windows Calculator)
Trigonometry sin(45), cos(90), tan(30) Standard trig functions
Square root sqrt(144) Square root
Hexadecimal input 0xFF * 2 Numbers prefixed with 0x are parsed as hexadecimal
Binary input 0b1010 + 5 Numbers prefixed with 0b are parsed as binary
Hex/Binary output Any integer result Results automatically show hex (0x...) and binary (0b...) equivalents
The x operator 5 x 3 The letter x is treated as multiplication
Currency symbols $100 + $50 Currency characters are stripped before evaluation
Locale-aware 1.000,50 or 1,000.50 Handles both comma and period as decimal separators

Tips

  • If you don't want calculations appearing in general search results, set Calculator to Search Tag Only. Then use Calculator + Tab when you need it.
  • The hex and binary display is great for developers — type 0xFF and instantly see its decimal equivalent, or type a decimal number and see the hex/binary forms in the result.
  • Fluent Search uses the same logarithm convention as the Windows Calculator app: log(x) is log base 10, ln(x) is the natural logarithm.
