Just putting it out here - before the recentish redesign of ios's default calculator, it had a widely non-intuitive behavior. Due to how it looked I assumed it works as a standard four-function calculator, but it was actually storing the whole expression in memory and executing it as per the standard precedence rules.

I do usually prefer the latter behavior, but without it being displayed as in more advanced calculators (it has been changed to show it) it's just not what I would expect at all, resulting in wrong calculations. But maybe it was just a "me-problem".
