Handy applications in Windows 7 get upgraded, such as calculator, paint and wordpad, let’s see what’s changed in calc this time.
Windows 里那些小程序在 Win7 里也升级了,其中包括计算器,画图和写字板,这次我们先看计算器。
In earlier version of Windows including WinXP and Vista, calc provides only Standard and Scientific modes, you may not have to find out there is a Scientific mode in Calc, it’s used mostly by people like programmers who need something like HEX–>BIN conversion (don’t know what it is? forget it). Now in Win7, there are 4: Standard, Scientific, Programmer and Statistics. Other new features are History and Unit Conversion.
包括 XP 和 Vista 在内的早期 Windows 里的计算器只有 标准和科学 两种模式,当然,有些人一辈子也不需要点一次“查看”菜单去发现里面原来还有个 “科学型”,有些人则大半辈子都离不开这个“科学型”。Win7 现在扩充到了4 种:标准,科学,程序员 和 统计学。还有些新功能在下面截图里有演示:历史和单位转换。
Standard mode, 标准模式
Scientific mode,科学计算
Programmer mode, the demo video below shows in this mode. Why? because I am a developer, this is my favorite mode. Binary also displays, long live bit mask.
程序员模式,也是下面视频演示操作用的模式。
Statistics mode, 统计学模式
My earlier posts about Win7 showed Control Panel, let’s see it in action.
以前控制面板只有截图,这次是操作上的小变化。
广告出现在 NYT 的首页上—-你现在去已经不一定看得到啦。横幅是大大的 Leopard is better and faster than Vista,这其实 莫博士 某日的一篇文章,PC 爬上梯子,说自己是为了纠正这篇 华尔街日报 之报道的标题的笔误—-少了个 NOT,后面?他还要去 get the whole internet correct。
