Microsoft/Calculator

With the new shipped out; Windows operating system comes with new features that are added or improved to make the experience of the operating system more desirable for its users. One of these improves features is the calculator feature added to the new operating system (Windows 10).

Information:

From the first look, it appears to have a new modern look.  It comes with the old standard operations, as well as improved Scientific Calculator functionality, Currency conversion (based on data from Bing), etc. More information about this app could be found on the GitHub link.  It's written in Cpp and C#.

Why you found it interesting?

When I found this project trending on the Github I was wondering what else could be added onto a calculator app? The reason I found this particular app interesting is from reading the roadmap on the GitHub site and looking that the idea the Microsofteam where plaining or suggesting on the open-source community to help improve their product.

What I later found out google stopped sup
