Calculator
by dreamiiing
Calculator is a Fabric command that lets players evaluate math expressions in chat without leaving the game.
What it does
The calc command takes a math input typed in game and returns the result at once. It supports the four basic operators and parentheses, so longer expressions work as written. Results appear as color-coded chat messages, which makes them simple to read at a glance.
The command works in single-player worlds and on multiplayer servers, and access can be limited by permission, so a server owner decides who may use it. Builders, redstone engineers and server administrators can check values during a build or a setup without switching to an outside tool. The mod is lightweight and is described as compatible with most modpacks.
Installation needs Fabric API. Calculator runs on the client only, so players install it and servers do not need it. Files are published for Fabric across 13 release versions, 1.21 – 26.3, under the CC0 1.0 Universal license, which places the work in the public domain; it is not open source.
