1. Why not Gnome calculator. It has Advanced, Scientific & Financial modes. In all but the basic mode, it has variables - a,b,c, x, y and z Current result can be saved in any of the variables. Using them is easy, just type x + y and the values stored in x & y will be added. 2. KCalc has the common Memory register. I can't recall my 'favourite' calculator. It's display was like a paper scroll so virtually unlimited memory. I could pick and any value from the scroll.
