Hello, welcome. I hope you will like it here.
After coding this RPN calculator, I discovered that there are already existing RPN calculator apps for the Apple Watch. For that reason, you probably won't find this specific app on the Apple Store.
- "Push" adds the current input onto the stack.
- "Clear" clears the current input and the stack.
- "Del" clears the most recent digit from the current input.
- "+", "-", "*", and "/" operate on the last two numbers in the stack and replace them with the result.
Follow these steps to build and run my RPN Calculator app on your Apple Watch.
First, clone the repository to your local machine:
git clone https://github.com/kyracho/RPN-Calculator.git
Navigate into the project directory:
cd RPN-Calculator
- Make sure you have the latest version of Xcode installed. You can download Xcode from the Mac App Store.
- Open the project in Xcode by double-clicking the
.xcodeproj
file, or run the following in your terminal:This will launch Xcode with the project ready to be built.open RPN Calculator.xcodeproj
Confirm that the app icon file (RPN.png
) is correctly placed in the assets folder:
RPN Calculator Watch App/Assets/AppIconset
This ensures the correct icon is displayed on your Apple Watch.
