[Blindmath] Replacement for Windows Calculator

[Trevor Attenberg]

I very often use excel for relatively simple math, and of course
spreadsheets. One advantage of this is you can easily save and review past
calculations if you'd like. I'm not completely sure if the Windows
calculator does all this, or if it does some additional tasks.
Best,
Trevor

You might also consider using one of the many fre maths or stats packages.
Octave, Maxima, and R for starters.

I haven't used anything but R for even the most simple calculations for over
five years. If your future involves more maths than stats, then Octave is
probably a better option though.

You could always resort to EXCEL of course.

If you have internet access you can use Google calculator. Just type your
expressions in the search box.
