C++ Sample Calculator Program version 2

// calcltr-02.cpp
//
// Calculator program that runs in console.
// Type M for menu.
//
// This is the original from PSW book Using C++
// I have used it as a basis to learn C++
//
// I have kept is at the following modifications will
// be easier to understand as the program becomes more sophisticated.
//
// Mods
// 01 Change command short cuts to alpha characters so that they are simple to
// key. Trivial change.
// 02 Add extra functions again trivial.
// Planned mods
// 03 Add Memory functions
// MEM IN .. loads memory with current value
// MEM PLUS .. adds current value to memory
// Note: Mem Minus achieved by typing n (negative) to make current
// value negative and MEM PLUS. If required redo n to make current
// value positive.
// MEM SWITCH switches current value and memory.
// 04 Add cacpability to use mem value in function, e.g. to subtract value in
// in memory from current value, but keep memory value.
// This was a bit complicated and required writing function to replace CIN
// and use of STRING to DOUBLE function
// 05 Improve by checking that values entered are numbers and not garbage.
// 06 Capability to undo up to last 5 commands. Code with Vector?
// 07 Log comands to file so that they can be audited.
// Have default log KALKLOG.DAT in C:|MyDATA which is backed up to
// KALKLOG.BAK start of new program, overwriting previous version.
// 08 Allow user to change log file name and locaton.
// 09 Take data file in LOG format and run as batch program.
//
// Also plan to use as test for compiling in Linux and with other systems.
// May try to convert to Java and Ruby??
// When I have learned widows programming may try to convert to windows type.
//
// I know it is all old hat but it helps me to learn and may even help others.
