About fend
fend is a calculator for the command line that works with arbitrary precision, so results are not limited by normal floating-point rounding. It is unit-aware: you can type quantities with units, combine them in calculations and convert the result to other units.
It suits people who spend time in a terminal and want quick calculations and unit conversions without opening a separate app or a search engine.
