    [^] Disclaimer: I have no connection to this site, no relationship with anyone at the site. I am so impressed by the quality of this website/resource developed by a multi-talented group of people (many with Ph.D.'s) in Poland ! "Too good not to share," as I used to hear in my boyhood (in the late Neolithic) from Dougie, the expert boy-thief of apple-turn-overs and donuts from Mr. Thompson's bakery. An amazing range of calculators from imminently practical to "far-out:" [^]. Want a "vampire apocalypse calculator:" [^] :) I am really enjoying their calculator+tutorial geometry examples, like [^], while I test the little geometry library for WinForms I am working on now. I am impressed by the design of the web-site, which is not "kiddified," not dumbed-down, and, imho, has an elegant, yet minimalist, design ... with liberal use of white-space contributing to its readability. No pop-ups ! enjoy, Bill

        Greetings Thank you for the link I am proud of my Polish bretheren I trust they didn't merely copy Wolfram|Alpha: Computational Intelligence[^] By the way "Mucha" means "housefly" - Cheerioski "I once put instant coffee into the microwave and went back in time." - Steven Wright "Shut up and calculate" - apparently N. David Mermin possibly Richard Feynman

          You doubt the integrity of your "brethren" ? Why not do some reading before making such allegations ?

            "Mucha" is the surname of the founder of the site I examined a few calculators though not too many Wolfram seems to offer similar abilities - Cheerioski

              On behalf of the Disneyland Character Casting staff, we appreciate your auditioning for the role of "Troll." However, the consensus of our judges was that your performance, while sarcastic, lacked the comedic depth we expect for that role, lacked dramatic focus. We found your wishing to be known by the name "Paltry" unsettling, given the etymology of that word:

              Quote:

              "mean, worthless, despicable," 1560s, probably an adjectival use of noun paltry "worthless thing" (1550s), associated with dialectal palt, pelt "trash," cognate with Middle Low German and East Frisian palte "rag," Middle Dutch palt "broken or torn fragment." Similar formation in Low German paltrig "rubbishy," East Frisian palterig "ragged, torn."

              We want our Trolls to be subtly wicked, while still being folksy, and attractive. The glint in their eyes should suggest mischief-making, not malice. Wishing you a brighter future, Disneyland, International.

                I love Wolfram Alpha. Amazing. The free version is great. I used to have a paid subscription when I used it more often. I agree though, this omni calculator site seems like a rip-off from Wolfram Alpha, but omni seems to have calculators that are not part of Wolfram, so I will give them the benefit of the doubt and assume they were "inspired" by Wolfram Alpha. :-D
