There comes a time in everyone's life in which, sitting in a stuffy, windowless math class you ask the question, "WHEN WILL I EVER USE THIS!?!" This question can only be answered up until half-way through algebra. If a grade-schooler asks you "when will I ever use long division in my life?" you can tell them when the day comes that you must share three waffles equally with two people...then...you will know. A sufficient and accurate answer. However, after you have stuggled through geometry, and are plodding on through college math...there is no answer to this age-old question because now your answers have imaginary numbers in them and the first seventeen letters of the alphabet!

So, as a veteran of awful math experiences, I have written this to give all of those poor souls still suffering through math courses a little ray of sunshine. Online calculators. These go beyond the basic 2+2 functions of a handheld calculator. These calculators can take (x-4) and expand it into the 57th term at the click of a mouse, or calculate standard deviation and z-scores with a tap of a key! So save your brain cells and realize that for math haters everywhere...there...is....hope!

Google search is a calculator also and it can convert words to numbers.

Its pretty cool and can perform advanced functions -

5*9+(sqrt 10)^3= If this is new to you,try pasting that into google search.

another one here who is challenged by math. My saving grace has been excel spreadsheets! Once you put the formula in, I dont have to think! Good advice and suggestions!
