Big information set with models that expose interesting bits

Enter a question or calculation and Wolfram|Alpha uses its built-in algorithms and data to get the answer. A huge set of information and tons of models, methods, and algorithms that make it possible to compute whatever can be computed about anything

What it's good for

  • Ask logical questions and get answers
  • Systematic knowledge computable
  • Wolfram|Alpha's long-term goal is to make all systematic knowledge immediately computable and accessible to everyone. We aim to collect and curate all objective data; implement every known model, method, and algorithm; and make it possible to compute whatever can be computed about anything. Our goal is to build on the achievements of science and other systematizations of knowledge to provide a single source that can be relied on by everyone for definitive answers to factual queries
  • Search for the raw data about a topic
  • Type in whole questions and search provides answers
  • Intelligent search/answer bot
  • Great calculator and solutions solving for algebra
  • Ask and receive answers to research questions
  • FANTASTIC Homework help for students and parents...math problems, science problems, etc...if you click on the Show Steps link, it breaks down all the steps to get to the answer....check out the Examples link too!
  • Search engine for teachers and students in academia on various academic topics
  • Tool for students and people compiling reports who need statistics, historical information, science and math answers as well as everyday random facts
  • A pretty cool calculation and modelling engine. Input the parameters you want and it figures out the simple math model to crunch the numbers
  • Background research and generate graphs with properties, derivatives, characteristics
  • Students can use this as a study resource, to get help on assignments and homework, or to improve understanding of concepts taught in class
  • A natural language "computational knowledge engine." Enter a question or calculation and Wolfram Alpha will compute the answer
