    Windows Calculator: A simple yet powerful calculator that ships with Windows

    • The Windows Calculator is open source from Microsoft. Do you think just any hacker can change the code for your calculator in Windows and on the next update, you run that code? How is Windows secure, if just any hacker can modify the calculators code to do anything they want? The answer is they can't modify the code arbitrarily in the calculators code repository that Microsoft oversees.
