Wolfram Mathematica Online Integrator
-
it's been so long since i've done one (20 years, probably), that i can't even remember how to handle something as basic as x^2 ...
I know what you mean about it being a while when doing integration stuff. I opened up my old college calculus text must for kicks the other day and still remembered how to do integration by fractions and some integration by parts. Forget integration by trigonometric substitution :laugh:

Has anyone used the Wolfram Mathematica Online Integrator[^]? Looks pretty cool.

All the time. Their Symbolic calculator is the best tool I know of (that's free) that I can use to check formulae all the time.

I'll have to check that out :)

Same here. I took 28 credit hours of math in college (out of a 205 hour curriculum), and I remember very little of it. 20 hours of calculus, 5 hours of differential equations, and 3 hours of matrix algebra. I've not had call to use any of it :sigh:. Not that I was very good at it to begin with :rolleyes: ...

Looks like a gateway drug for all sorts of nasty things: partial differential equations, numerical methods, :shudder:.

I have the same problem with a lot of mathematics that I do with a lot of software technologies: vocabulary. No one ever explains their cute terminology in conventional terms. Microsoft's COM was about the worst for that.

Same here but to my surprise I was able to get the answer to x^2 before testing it in the calculator. :) But I'm sure there would be other parts of maths where I'd be stumped!

I studied some of that on an Open University course many years ago and found it quite tough.

I haven't seen the book. Is it really a tough reading? The automata book we used in the automata class I took was pretty tough. The teacher was really good, and made it make more sense.

No it's not. Have never had an automata class, but this one is mostly figures of every possible example and an explanation. It's a very good book, but he uses the word I a lot and appears conceited. He's proud of the fact that he found the least working combination of some type of automata. Hence, the arrogance. Ignoring that, it's good. Stephen Wolfram: A New Kind of Science[^]

Lucky you. For my Master's work, it was a required course.

I would find that bothersome.

Yep. Would have been nice to have around when I took calculus in school :)

:laugh: Now, did you check the results by hand for proof of correctness?

Yes, but unfortunately there were no computers in school when I went, hell I remember in grade school learning math with an Abacus :-D

I recall that. I had a physics teacher who did not allow calculators on the exams, but he was okay about using a slide rule.

Ah, the slide rule. If you could use one with some amount of proficiency you were considered a geek. Perhaps the prerequisite for the computer geek? :)

As I think back on it, that is what he was trying to imply :-D

Sure, but to him, it was perhaps more along the lines of science/math/physics geek. It was something to be proud of :)
