Of course the oldest program here has to be the one that can show off the most. I've no idea if it is at all accurate though.

The Android calculator literally has precision limited only by memory. Just swipe left on the displayed result to get as many significant figures as you like. All displayed digits guaranteed correct! You can read a little about it here and more in the articles linked to from there. I'm sure it's been discussed on this forum previously too.
