When you break the subscription cost down into weekly payments, it seems very reasonable.
It costs less than a Stabucks coffee every 5 minutes.
I wouldn’t know. I can’t check.
Adless addition is easily worth it
The secret to selling the calculator subscription is to use the smallest possible time base for the quoted price since the potential clients can't use the calculator to figure out the yearly cost of the subscription.

Addition = 1 mathgem.
Subtraction = 2 mathgems.
Multiplication = 3 mathgems.
Division = 5 math gems.
Square root = 10 mathgems.
100 math gems = £1.99.
1,000 math gems = £15.99.
10,000 math gems = £129.99. BEST VALUE
There's a decent occult/sci-fi novel series called the Laundry Files wherein people sometimes stumble across or come up with forbidden mathematics that actually functions as a form of occult spellcraft. They then get forcibly drafted into this secret government organization that works to protect the world from extraterrestrial threats, occult creatures like vampires and succubi, and the lovecraftian horrors from the depths of the oceans or the ~~fridge~~ fringe edges of space. They're like the men in black crossed with Lovecraft crossed with a British comedy about monotonous office life and bureaucracy. It's a pretty entertaining series. Highly recommend.
the fridge edges of space
Somewhere near the borders of known space, shrouded by darkness and a two-week-old carton of milk, they lurk... the moldy leftovers!
What a bizarre idea. Thanks for the rec!

It's the teachers that said we wouldn't always have calculators in our pockets getting revenge.
Yup. If you use your calculator for 5×6 instead of remembering your times tables, they lock you out
You divided by zero didn't you?
NO CALCULATOR IS GOING TO TELL ME WHAT I CAN'T DO!
look what you did, now everything is broken
Pssh, I'll divide by zero all day. You just need -infinity=infinity (think a number circle instead of a number line), and you're good.
It's 0/0 where the real crimes begin.
Yep. ∞ is infinitely big in the same way that 0 is infinitely small. -0 = 0 and -∞ = ∞. Opposite ends of the circle. (Or the Riemann sphere if you like complex numbers.)
While this Riemann sphere seems like a useful concept, -∞ = ∞ is an observation that doesn't seem to hold true outside this spherical model of complex numbers. Just add ∞ to the both sides, and you end up with 0 = ∞ + ∞ which is most certainly not true.

Now only included on Apple One.
You probably did meth
Tried to do the funny "58008" on the display didn't you?
Yeah you can use all the fancy symbols you want but at the end of the day multivariate differential calculus is just addition and multiplication in a funny arrangement, you can't stop me. L'Hopital taught me how to divide by zero and by god I will, damnit.

Now I really want to know what this person did to get this.

Huh, I was expecting my phone's calculator to return i, but it just says it's undefined. You'd think imaginary numbers should be supported, but I guess not. Maybe some phone calculators do, and some don't?

TEACH ME THE DARK EQUATIONS OF OLD
I remember seeing a review for that game a while back. Didn't know you could get banned from it.
I found the review:
