Search engine UI is better for it than most default calculators. I use Kubuntu and KCalc is usually pretty crap in comparison.
Say I want to calculate 220480*(1.0523-1.0522). Now I want to 220480*(1.0524-1.0523), doing that in KCalc requires awkwardly typing out the entire thing again. Doing it in duckduckgo I just change 23 and 22 to 24 and 23.
But I also don’t use a calculator often enough to look for a better one to install.
Edit: or the gui version, idk, I pretty much live on the command line so maybe I’m biased but this thing does everything I’ve ever wanted from a calculator. Also use it on my phone now, yes from the command line, because I still haven’t found a proper mobile app that can conveniently do more than multiplication
I use librecalc - I would’ve used excell in a previous life, but most spreadsheets will do - and what I like about it is that I can keep a running tally of the entire calculation chain as I go. And once you learn to use the tool, it can do much, much more powerful things.

Once you go apt install qalc you never go back

For those things I use bc
It’s probably already installed. You can curse me later when you find what it is.

Yeah for more complex stuff I do sometimes use librecalc
