UnitCalc It's a Reverse Polish Notation calculator which does all arithmetic with the numbers and the units. Many mistakes will be caught immediately when the units in your answer are not what you expect; other mistakes will be avoided entirely, since you never need to shift decimal places (for example, when dividing m^2 by mm*cm). Moreover, UnitCalc is fully configurable -- you define what units you like to use. It will even do American units, if that's what you prefer. UnitCalc has been superceded by MacUnitCalc (for Mac) and the author does not develop UnitCalc anymore.
