\subsection math-description Description
`math` is used to perform mathematical calculations. It is a very
thin wrapper for the bc program, which makes it possible to specify an
expression from the command line without using non-standard extensions
or a pipeline.
`math` is used to perform mathematical calculations. It is a very thin wrapper for the bc program, which makes it possible to specify an expression from the command line without using non-standard extensions or a pipeline.
For a description of the syntax supported by math, see the manual for the bc program. Keep in mind that parameter expansion takes place on any expressions before they are evaluated. This can be very useful in order to perform calculations involving shell variables or the output of command substitutions, but it also means that parenthesis have to be escaped.

\subsection math-example Examples
`math 1+1` outputs 2.
`math $status-128` outputs the numerical exit status of the
last command minus 128.
