MathPad is a general purpose graphing scientific calculator. It uses a text worksheet rather than simulating buttons on a hand held calculator. This live scratchpad interface allows you to see and edit your entire calculation.
In addition to being a handy little calculator, MathPad can also take on larger problems. Simple plotting allows quick visualization of results. General purpose arrays allow calculations involving vectors, complex numbers, matrix algebra etc. 2D arrays can be displayed as grayscale or color images. Several examples are included showing such things as equation

But then it's extensible, and acts as the poor-man's Mathcad; it handles arrays, graphs, special functions and so on. It (obviously) doesn't run at the speed of a compiled program. but for checking results it is outstanding.
And the price is right!
