I am not a developer of this app but I find that you faced a common issue with using scientific calculators. An argument for sin function should be given as pi and its multiplier format. For 45deg it is sin pi/4 -> keys: pi 4 / sin
edit: I'm not able to comment with parenthesis and char pi so I beg a pardon that above statment is not as it suppose to be.
I suppose you want to pull my leg
As any scientific calculator i know , including RPN ones have a way to switch the trigonometric modes in (at least) radians or degrees
This was the case wit the previous version of RPNCalc running on SailFishOS 3.3, with a right swipe.
This is missing in this version
And also some function like e^x (exp) exhibit the same flow
I don't know how it use to work and it is likely that you are correct :) but you were complaining about calculation correctnes. Now it looks like that something wrong is with Settings page and settings. I will look at it if I have free time.
edit: Certainly there is something wrong with settings. For the time being you can set selected unit in ~/.config/harbour-rpncalc.conf file. There is "angle_unit=DEG" but should be Degree, Radian or Gradient instead of DEG, e.g. "angle_unit=Degree"

thanks

on my XA2 Ultra it just simply does not work
for example the following sequence
45 sin
prints sin(45) on the screen which a true information but not really a result
i could not find a function that works
is there something i do not understand

Need 32-bit ARMv7 build.
Is it possible?

Working perfectly. Thanks. I've missed this RPN calculator for years.
