Could i create a calculator with all these apps tutorials?

hi, so as i can see ( im in chapter 2) that all of c++ coding is simple maths, so if i will finish all chapters and repeat them daily, would it be enough to create a calculator program? Thank you.

mine is french maybe the translation from french to english to lithuanian isn't without causing damages. In resume, you must read about precision of float and double to understand why some calculs are giving answers that are bad. By the way, this app doesn't talk about GUI but lot of tutorials can be found ob the web.

I woulf say yes but you have to be careful while using floats and doubles. They store numbers with a floating coma expressed in binary. Each number is converted into a mantisse and an exponent which can introduce errors on approximations. While giving an answer on a calcul you should always be able to tell if it's still in the admissible precision or not if you don't want abberations like 10^10+0.000001 = 10^10 more info here : https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Single-precision_floating-point_format
