Just for reference, those may be simple concepts, but they're anything
but boring. Most of us use text editors all the time, and I have a
habit of incorporating calculators into basically everything I write
(if it has a command-line input system of any kind). It's worth
knowing how to write both programs, because some day you'll be doing
something where you want the program to just quickly pop up a little
editor and let you change something on the fly, or just quickly fire
up a calculator that drops the result into some part of the program's
core functionality. It can be EXTREMELY handy, and useful.
