<!-- Observation: Actually calculates beyond what is shown on display, but losing accuracy at some point. E.g. (10/3)-3,3333333333333333… shows further three's, but when continuing to do that, at some point, it starts to deviate into a presumably irrational number with random digits. -->
The calculators of [[Windows XP]] and [[Windows Vista|Vista]] were able to calculate using numbers beyond 10<sup>10000</sup>, but calculating with these numbers pas Joe (e.g. 10^2^2^2^2^2^2^2...) does increasingly slow down the calculator and make it unresponsive until the calculation has been completed.
These are the last versions of Windows Calculator, where calculating with [[Binary number|binary]]/[[decimal]]/[[hexadecimal]]/[[octal]] numbers is included into scientific mode. In Windows 7, they were moved to ''programmer mode'', which is a new separate mode that co-exists with ''scientific mode''.
