Circle Function [Circle]   Enhanced Circle Function

Starting with version 2.0, BuildCalc's Circle function has been enhanced to display the most information with the least number of keystrokes.  Because the first press of the [Circle] key is often used to store a diameter value for other calculations, no change has been made in function for the first key press.  However, if the [Circle] key is pressed a second time, all Circle function results are displayed in a list.

The Circle function calculates descriptive geometry for a circle given the following input scenarios:
  1. Input a [Radius].
  2. Input a Diameter ( [Circle] ).
  3. Given two of the following for an arc:
