Upgraded to Big Sur and much to my chagrin the calculator is gone from the Notification Center. As a CPA this is a BIG blow. Don't tell me to put it in the Dock. It's full. Why fix something that wasn't broken?
MacBook Pro 15″, macOS 11.2
For reasons known only to the macOS product team, they removed the Calulator widget from Big Sur. You can send direct feedback to the macOS produxct team.
Although I understand any alternative would be disruptive to your accustomed workflow, you can drag and drop the Calculator application to your Dock for single-click launch. Better than nothing, or a traditional calculator on your Desk.

You can also use Spotlight to pull up the calculator. Command - space then start typing "calculator". As soon as "Calculator" appears, hit return. Yes, it's a slightly different workflow but, once you've gotten used to it, probably just as fast.

You can make the dock smaller, but still magnify when mousing over it.
This is a screenshot of mine (more than 60 icons):
I see two you can remove… 😎
Nah, this is because I am booted into HS from an external SSD to see what still work and what doesn't; my regular internal has Sierra and they still work there!
Thank you for your replies and I appreciate your suggestions. I guess the shock of not finding it is as disturbing as not having it.
You are welcome, Molly.
We all develop patterns, and when these patterns are perturbed, such as Apple just removing a practical feature, stress elevates. 😎
Where's the calculator?
