Hi. I just signed up on this website. Look, I'll leave you something for you to share. http://www.wolframalpha.com/ It is a browser for scientists and engineers and has everything you need, until you check your calculation formulas. Its creator is an engineer who wants everyone to know as much or more than he and his website is: http://www.wolframalpha.com/

Was initially very suspicious of this but a bit of research showed it is genuine. Put a couple of basic queries into it like "volume of a sphere" and it comes up with the right answer, but it's not difficult to stump it.

Hi David-It's absolutely legitimate. I have been familiar with Wolfram Alpha for a while, but I don't use it much because I'm not adept at creating queries that it can answer. A few weeks ago I tried to find out the percentage of the U.S population that is left-handed (don't ask why!), but I was not able to figure it out.It's definitely an incredibly powerful "Computational Search Engine".-Rick

@davi_d @rick: If you remember, I wrote a column about this a while back: Got a Question? Ask the WolframAlpha Computational Intelligence Engine!This worked great when I queried the calculator as to the relationship between myself and "my great-great-grandfather's sister's great-grandson" -- I was well-impressed.
