Title: The GNU BC arbitrary precision calculator

Author: Philip A. Nelson

Abstract: bc is a language that supports arbitrary precision numbers
5
with interactive execution of statements. There are some similarities
6
in the syntax to the C programming language. A standard math library is
7
available by command line option. If requested, the math library is
8
defined before processing any files. bc starts by processing code from
9
all the files listed on the command line in the order listed. After all
10
files have been processed, bc reads from the standard input. All code
11
is executed as it is read. (If a file contains a command to halt the
12
processor, bc will never read from the standard input.)
