227 live, computable functions in one portable, fully offline file. The complete AlchemyCalc G2 base (CGB depositions, attributed open-science corpus, instruction editor, AutoPhi math accelerator, Fractal Lab, database loader) plus a 177-instruction Fortuna pack: Medicine (48) · Energy (46) · Carbon (45) · Omnia (18) · Probability & Chance + Games, Wagers & Fortune (20).
What the Fortuna pack computes
everything the Omnia edition carries — the full clinical, power, carbon and Earth/information/finance libraries and the library search — plus the probability pack: Bernoulli's binomial, Poisson, the birthday problem, coupon collector, gambler's ruin, the Kelly criterion, Turing & Good's deciban evidence engine, Pearson's random walk, exact dice sums, lottery odds, Monty Hall, streaks, Benford's law, surprisal and the Drake equation. And the capability no deterministic calculator has: the Monte Carlo Lab — give any input of any instruction a distribution instead of a number, run ten thousand seeded trials, and read the outcome as it actually is: mean, spread, bad-luck 5th percentile, good-luck 95th, drawn as a histogram. Same seed, same fortune — even the randomness is reproducible, so even the randomness can be audited. A distribution sampler completes the tab.
Learn it right — a suggestion. These are professional-grade instructions, and most people need instructional help the first time through. Our suggestion: pair this edition with an AI tutor, such as Claude by Anthropic (claude.ai) — paste an instruction's 📜 origin line, its formula, and your numbers, and ask Claude to walk you through what it means, the units, and how to read the result before you rely on it. The calculator computes; a tutor explains.
Provenance — who and what
Formulas and laws of nature are unpatentable — no one owns them. Every calculation names its origin, in-app and in the shipped ledgers (PROVENANCE.md + PROVENANCE-FORTUNA.md). The ten CGB Mathematical Depositions are © Christopher Gabriel Brown; every borrowed formula credits its originator and year.
In the box
- The AlchemyCalc Fortuna app — one file (271 KB), no install, no internet, phone-ready
- The Proof button — the calculator verifies itself against known values, live on your device
- The Professor button — composes a full lesson prompt for an AI tutor such as Claude (claude.ai)
- Plain-English guide (laymen notes), quick-start, license & IP notice
- Both provenance ledgers and a fictional demo dataset
Medicine content: educational mathematics only — not medical advice. Energy content: engineering estimates — verify against codes. Carbon content: emission factors are averages — use official factors for reporting. Fortuna content: randomized results are seeded simulations — reproducible, and still simulations. Probability is not prophecy; never wager what you cannot lose.
