QT-Calculator
QT-Calculator is a very basic calculator for Linux users.
QT-Calculator is created by Vinícius Ribeiro. You can download an AppImage or Source code from the Releases section of his GitHub website.
I chose to download the AppImage.
After the file downloaded, I located it and moved it into an AppImages folder that I had previously created to keep my AppImages organized. (You don't have to move your AppImage file for it to work.)
Locate your AppImage file and right-click it.
Click on Properties when the pop-up menu appears.
Click on the Permissions tab when the Properties dialog-box appears and click the box to the left of, "Allow executing files as program." Then click the Close button.
Now double-click the AppImage file to see if it will execute or run.
You can always use Mozo (MATE Menu Editor) or Alacarte to manually add the calculator to any menu of your choice.

Next, click the square icon on the left and locate an icon for the program. Then click the OK button when you finish in the Create Launcher dialog box to close it. You can then click on the Move Up or Move Down button in the Main Menu dialog box to move the icon and program in alphabetical order. Then click the Close button to exit the Main Menu dialog box.

You should now see QT-Calculator in your menu.
Click the QT-Calculator icon to test your new calculator.
Remember, this a a very basic calculator, so don't expect it to do a lot. It is great for systems that have small screens since it has large buttons.
