On a regular calculator, the square root is evaluated right after it is pressed. The sqrt symbol doesn't come before the number. I also noticed that When the = is pressed it checks whether there is a sqrt root in the problem several times (depending on number of characters present.) Which isn't so efficient.

Because √ is not a JavaScript operator. Use Math.sqrt(someNumber) or someNumber ** 0.5 instead.
