    Default Wolfram|Alpha

    Introducing the latest revolution in search:

    As of now, Wolfram|Alpha contains 10+ trillion of pieces of data, 50,000+ types of algorithms and models, and linguistic capabilities for 1000+ domains. Built with Mathematica—which is itself the result of more than 20 years of development at Wolfram Research—Wolfram|Alpha's core code base now exceeds 5 million lines of symbolic Mathematica code. Running on supercomputer-class compute clusters, Wolfram|Alpha makes extensive use of the latest generation of web and parallel computing technologies, including webMathematica and gridMathematica.

    Wolfram|Alpha's knowledge base and capabilities already span a great many domains, and its underlying framework has the power and flexibility to support ready extension to essentially any domain that is based on systematic knowledge. More »

    The universe of potentially computable knowledge is, however, almost endless, and in creating Wolfram|Alpha as it is today, we needed to start somewhere. Our approach so far has been to emphasize domains where computation has traditionally had a more significant role. As we have developed Wolfram|Alpha, we have in effect been systematically covering the content areas of reference libraries and handbooks. In going forward, we plan broader and deeper coverage, both of traditionally scientific, technical, economic, and otherwise quantitative knowledge, and of more everyday, popular, and cultural knowledge.

    Wolfram|Alpha's ability to understand free-form input is based on algorithms that are informed by our analysis of linguistic usage in large volumes of material on the web and elsewhere. As the usage of Wolfram|Alpha grows, we will capture a whole new level of linguistic data, which will allow us to greatly enhance Wolfram|Alpha's linguistic capabilities.

    Today's Wolfram|Alpha is just the beginning. We have ambitious plans, for data, for computation, for linguistics, for presentation, and more. As we go forward, we'll be discussing what we're doing on the Wolfram|Alpha Blog, and we encourage suggestions and participation, especially through the Wolfram|Alpha Community.

    This is MUCH better than any other mathematical database that i've previously used =D. But I also dont like it too much. it's not very newbie friendly .

    You just type in some shit and it gives you all these graphs
    What's so hard xD
    E.X, type:
    a = 215000 - 896d, a = 250000

    He never said it was. He said it was easy and honestly it is. All you do is type whatever you need. :/

    i tried the equation solving
    http://www06.wolframalpha.com/input/?i=x^5-2x^4%2B(sin(x^6))-3x%3Dsin(45)

    this is kewl
    but it doesn't beat my texas titan 85!

    Yeah, check out the stock graphs though.. I don't think your titan can do that

    Imagine statistics like that for GE items, eh?
