calc.exe is now open source; there's surprising depth in its ancient code
Microsoft's embrace and adoption of open source software has continued with the surprising decision to publish the code for Windows Calculator and release it on GitHub under the permissive MIT license.
The repository shows Calculator's surprisingly long history. Although it is in some regards one of the most modern Windows applications—it's an early adopter of Fluent Design and has been used to showcase a number of design elements—core parts of the codebase date all the way back to 1995.

At my office, with people of similar intelligence (or lack thereof), we do this sort of thing with Excel. Perhaps that would work? I wouldn't be surprised if many people around here don't even know that Windows Calculator exists....
If they don't have Excel, tell 'em to get LibreOffice. If they can't figure that out, send 'em to a computer lab.
