Or you can run it by typing “calc” in search.
Keep in mind that you can enter your numbers and mathematical operators into

numeric keypad rather than always clicking the numbers and operation symbol
buttons in the Calculator window.
Windows Change Calculator modes:
Statistics (Alt+1):Basic mode
Scientific (Alt+2): Adds keys for performing trigonometric calculations —
great for all the engineers out there.

in different number systems, including hexadecimal, octal, and binary number
systems, along with the usual decimal system using different word and byte
sizes.
Statistics (Alt+4): Adds keys for doing statistical calculations involving
linear regression.
In addition to the basic configuration — perfect for doing straightforward
computations — the Calculator also offers the following specialized configurations
(also available from the View menu) designed for more complex
calculations:
Unit Conversion (Ctrl+U): Adds fields for converting all sorts of measurements
(angles, pressures, temperatures, weights, time, velocities, mass,
and so on) from one set of units to another.
Date Calculation (Ctrl+E): Adds fields for performing calculations between
two dates.
Ctrl+F4 to return to the basic configuration
from any of the other available configurations.
