Since this board has a higher density of numbers oriented people than other board I read, I thought this would be appropriate. MS has released a new program called Microsoft Mathematics that is a very nice scientific calculator. Functions include statistics, trig, linear algebra differentiation and integration. Free download here.Its like the expensive TI calculator I have, except you can copy and paste and integrate with MS Word. Just be warned it uses the newest Office style menu layout

Free download here.Its like the expensive TI calculator I have, except you can copy and paste and integrate with MS Word. Just be warned it uses the newest Office style menu layout I'll take a look. Wolfram mathematics have a free integrator. Well worth a look. Maybe a few of the hoax proponents can use it and conduct some integrated dose calculations. I doubt it. I was revising integration by parts about 7 months ago, and using the Wolfram page allowed me to check if I had made the correct integration. While I am a physicist, I really enjoy the mathematics side of the subject. There's nothing better than taking something very complex and them watching all the terms fall out.

What's the difference between x64 and x86?

x64 is for 64-bit Windows operating systems. x86 is (obviously!) 32-bit.

Norton says the file is safe. I suspect conspiracy.

Hey that's cool. You can handwrite in your own expression. It also has a unit converter, which I've bee desperately needing.

What's the difference between x64 and x86? [smart aleck] x86 is 1.34375 times x64. [/smart aleck]

Does it have an RPN option? Apparently Microsoft put the operators where God intended for them to be and only where God intended them to be, rather that follow the ways of Satan's spawn, HP.

What's the difference between x64 and x86? [smart aleck] x86 is 1.34375 times x64. [/smart aleck] [even bigger smart aleck] He said the difference, thus the answer is 22. [/even bigger smart aleck]

[even bigger smart aleck] He said the difference, thus the answer is 22. [/even bigger smart aleck] Actually the answer is 22x. The difference is 22 only when x=1.

Confirming my point that there is a higher than average percentage of people interested in number here, even if it takes several of us to find multiple answers to a trivial problem.

Of course the 'x' might be interpreted as indication of hexadecimal, in which case the answer is 34 (aka x22)
