Day Maxi Calc1.5

You can say that your computer is just the extremely evolved version of a pocket calculator. Needless to say that calculus is not a computer's main function, but it's one of them. Windows puts such a utility at your disposal in the basic feature pack. If it doesn't tickle your fancy you might want to know that there are dozens of other calculators, just like Day Maxi Calc.

Simple, but rough visual design

Considering it's a simple utility meant to save you the time to manually perform complex calculus, portability is a major advantage. Other than this, the computer it's used on suffers from little to no impact on functionality and resources, leaving you to worry only about solving math expressions.Visual design is pretty rough, with a poor choice for colors used to differentiate functions from numbers, while arrangement might not appeal to everyone. What's more, the application prides itself with large buttons to make elements easy to identify and use, but this is blown away when dragging the window edges with no change to layout or button size, only uncovering empty space.

Only packed with basic operators

If most calculators have one input field and saves each variable until the result is displayed, this application lets you write down expressions in two fields, with a separator represented by the operation used.It might seem like fun and games, especially if using the keyboard for input. Any character can be written down, but thinking you can write complex expressions in two panels separated by an operator, the result so nothing more than disappointing.Sadly, there's not a lot of power under the hood and besides basic operators, you only get to determine percentage and square root. All results are saved in a preview panel, which you can export to a TXT file.

To sum it up

Bottom line is that if you're looking for a more powerful alternative to the calculator Windows puts at your disposal, Day Maxi Calc is far from being a suitable choice. Visual design is rough and even if you manage to overlook it, only basic operators can be used, with a difficult input method that has a strong impact on practicality.
