Just a clarification: what is your definition of "heuristics" ? Do you consider the Alpha–beta pruning within a minimax search in chess to be a heuristic or an algorithm ? Do you consider programs that solve, say, Sudokus using bitboard-handling and recursion, to be using heuristics or algorithms ?

Also, are you interested in source code for any kind of calc and any brands ? That's too wide a mark.
