"When Wolfram Alpha starts solving word problems..."

It's no Wolfram|Alpha, but it solves word problems fairly well.
- bayareaguy 17y agoUnfortunately both this and Alpha are trivial to confuse: What is the area of a circle with radius "2x" yields 3.1415926535897931 * 2x^2 which is obviously incorrect. Alpha on the other hand doesn't give a result unless simplified to area of a circle with radius (2x) where it gives a nonsensical display alongside the fact that 4pi is about 12.5664.
- Gompers 17y agoIt may give you the wrong answer, but it makes it hard to be led astray: Evaluated area = pi * radius^2 giving AREA = 3.1415926535897931 * 2x^2 That description makes it obvious that a pair of parentheses are the only thing lacking.
