I'm having a surprisingly hard time finding one. There's a bunch of good ones for Android (like picrel) but all the desktop ones are single-line trash (default Windows one, both old and new, Qalculate, SpeedCruncch, Python interpreter, etc). I just want to write mathematical expressions naturally man, how hard can a calculator like that be to make?
just hit up a local campus after the terms are over
you can get great ones second hand for cheap

Get one of those 'computers'. Not only it is graphical, you can program it to calculate almost anything.
Python CLI or wolfram alpha. I use them for electronics related physics calcs.
>wolfram alpha
Good suggestion but that's a website that won't work offline.
Just get SageMath then or mathematica if you want a paid solution.

Anon you're still missing the point. Natural input like this is a MUST. If I was content with single-line input where I have to decipher billions of brackets the second the expression gets even remotely long, I wouldn't have made this thread.
I've seen tools that will render your input as a separate bit with mathjax, but not another that fricks with your input the way your screenshot shows.
Sounds like a (You) problem. It's all single line anyways.
It's not in Wolfram Alpha and these TI-X ripoffs for Android.
It is after decombobulating your pretty UI gizmo. If you really need those crutches then go for it, but for me it's single line or gtfo.
Good for you but why are you in this thread if you hate natural input that much? I'm fed up with single-line shit and want an alternative for my main driver that already exists on my secondary driver and in an always-online form.
>why are you in this thread
Count me out then. Your self-imposed use case makes it harder for yourself than necessary.
>natural input
moronic dog Black person
just use variables
>pee = ...
>poo = ...
>pee / poo
Haskell comes to mind if you really wanna make a calculator. AI could help you a lot.
I like Qualculator for something graphical but what's wrong with just writing a Python script.
R
Learn RPN and forget about that "natural math" trash.
Rpn is the most moronic nonsense ever
Good luck then.

Desmos desktop is all you'll ever need
If you're a baby that needs natural display, get a Casio fx-ES PLUS Emulator.
natural math expressions don't translate well on desktop. just learn to be satisfied with shitty single-line input. i find ipython/jupyter really nice to calculate more complicated things i wouldn't do on a regular calculator
qalc & qalculate-gtk

the best.

Emacs M-x calc
Microsot Math
NaSC
geogebra
I use PCalc usually (RPN chad)

Sometimes I wonder if OPs like these are genuine morons that just can't help themselves or the most annoying but creative trolls.
Sure, insisting on pointless, insane arguments or details is an old staple of trolling but coming up with creative ways to do so is quite challenging.
I suspect it's a troll.
Either way, frick calculators, I prefer equation solvers like HiPER Calc. On desktop I put it into Bluestacks.
I don't see what's so insane about wanting to write shit the same way I do on paper and doing away with billions of brackets.
Frick these haters man, I get exactly what you mean.
But unfortunately I don´t know of any that is straightforward to use. Normally I just use wolfram alpha.
Wxmaxima does natural input CAS but it's a freetard program so if you use it be prepared to deal with all the intricacies of a GUI for a lisp program from the 70s.

This is what I use on desktop.

i use python since it's already there
