Synopsis Report

Project Title: Scientific Calculator using Tkinter

1. Introduction

This project is a Scientific Calculator developed using Python’s Tkinter library. The calculator
provides both basic arithmetic operations and advanced scientific functions, offering a user-friendly
graphical interface.

2. Objective

The main objective is to design and implement a calculator that can perform:

- Basic operations: addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, power, parentheses.

- Scientific operations: sine, cosine, tangent, logarithm (base 10 and natural), square root, factorial,
constants (π, e).

3. Tools & Technologies Used

- Programming Language: Python 3.x

- GUI Library: Tkinter (standard Python library)

- Math Library: math (for scientific functions)

4. Features

- Graphical User Interface: Built with Tkinter, featuring buttons for all operations.

- Basic Functions: +,*, -, /, ^, (, )

- Scientific Functions: sin, cos, tan, log, ln, √, factorial, π, e

- Error Handling: Displays "Error" for invalid expressions.

- Responsive Design: Buttons are arranged for easy access and usability.

5. Working Principle

- The calculator interface is created using Tkinter frames and buttons.

- User input is displayed in an entry widget.

- Button clicks append the corresponding value or function to the input.

- On pressing "=", the input string is parsed and evaluated using Python’s eval() with the math
module for scientific calculations.
- The result is displayed in the entry field. If the input is invalid, an error message is shown.

6. Advantages

- Simple and intuitive interface.

- Supports a wide range of mathematical operations.

- Easily extendable for more functions.

7. Limitations

- Does not support complex numbers.

- Relies on Python’s eval(), which is restricted for safety but may not handle all edge cases.

- No history or memory functions.

8. Conclusion
This scientific calculator project demonstrates the use of Python’s Tkinter for GUI development and
the math module for advanced calculations. It is a practical tool for students and anyone needing
quick mathematical computations.
