Tool Categories (101 tools total)

Key Observations

• All output is in Chinese (Mandarin) — startup: "已注册 101 个计算器工具", results: "加法运算结果" (addition result), "错误：除数不能为零！" (division by zero error)
• Sub-millisecond computation — pure math, no I/O; p50=0ms across 78 calls
• Triangle detection — automatically identifies right triangles ("直角三角形") and computes all angles
• Financial tools include investment advice — NPV returns "投资建议" (investment recommendation), IRR shows profitability indicator
• Cross-verified results — factorial(10)=3628800 ✓, C(10,3)=120 ✓, gcd(12,18,24)=6 ✓, 1mi=1.609km ✓, 100°C=212°F ✓, |3+4i|=5 ✓, det[[1,2],[3,4]]=-2 ✓, IRR=8.8963% ✓

Gotchas

• ⚠️ Polynomial coefficients are LOW-to-HIGH order — [a₀, a₁, a₂] means a₀ + a₁x + a₂x². So [0,0,1] = x², NOT [1,0,0]. Confirmed: ∫₀¹ x²dx with [0,0,1] returns 0.333 ✓
• ⚠️ Unit conversion uses SHORT ENUM values — km not kilometer, kmh not km/h, m2 not square_meter, lb not pound. Using full names returns MCP validation error with enum list
• ⚠️ Volume conversion has NO `gal`/`gallon` option — options: ml, l, m3, cm3, in3, ft3 (US gallon not supported)
• ⚠️ `isPrime` returns Chinese text — "97 是素数" (97 is prime) / "100 不是素数（偶数）" (100 is not prime, even) — not boolean true/false
• `sqrt(-1)` returns graceful error — "负数不能开平方根！" (negative numbers can't have square root)
• `divide(10,0)` returns graceful error — "除数不能为零！" (divisor cannot be zero)
• Matrix inverse uses fixed-point format — [-2.000000, 1.000000] not exact fractions
• `stdDev` has `sample` boolean param — false for population, true for sample standard deviation
