Okay, well, yes of course, but it is used sometimes in the
shell - not every day but sometimes - in Emacs I don't think
I ever used it, but if I did I'd do it from the shell after
M-x shell RET.

In the shell however getting Emacs isn't that easy.

Also, since this solution is so simple and general, and that
is all based on the shell tool bc(1), it is more natural to do
that with shell programming.

NASCAR (Daytona USA) just suddenly lacked the variety I needed
after a couple of hundred laps ... incar (or IndyCar Racing)
seems to have another drive!
