Anything too complex for the dead simple calculator on my phone ends up in a spreadsheet. I’m not generally graphing anything or doing complex calculus, tho. Mostly finances. For algebra, geometry, and any calculus that’s about manipulating symbols rather than getting to a number, I’ll use scrap paper. But then I learned math back before the calculators available to the average Joe could do any of that for you.

For simple adding of a list of numbers I either use a text file and awk, or Spotlight on the Mac.

Spigot: an extremly precise calculator. it calulates every formular to the needed precision. Other programs often have problems with longer formulars, especially when it goes to an precision beyond 3 numbers after the comma.
