OH, great. Now I can seek the answer to 1392 divided by 7.2, and get gay porn back.

Wow, Check out c in furlongs per fortnight

and my diesel VW Jetta's top speed in parsecs per decade.

It also knows a whole lot of constants. I haven't stumped it yet.

I see that google also has a pop up blocker with their tool bar, but I wish they had a dictionary browser button.

How do you do Cubic Liters(or cc's) to Cubic Inches???
I tried "5.2 cubic liters equals cubic inches" & "5200 cc equals cubic inches" "5200 cc = inches^3" No luck!!!

The calculator is pretty cool, though the documentation seems a bit lacking. For example, the sqrt() computes square root [and the calculator can even work dimensional analysis through it] but I can't figure anything out for cube root.

Still, it is pretty neat to be able to plug in "sqrt(32 watts/8 ohms)" or "sqrt(2* (16 feet)/g)"and get a meaningful result [though the latter example shows that dimensional analysis isn't everything!]

This really works.

"cubic yard in pecks"

"1 cubic yard = 86.7849026 US pecks"

I thought I might stump it (or overflow it), but entering "c in angstroms per millennium" gives "the speed of light = 9.4605284 × 1028 angstroms per millennium"

Sure enough when I typed "100000 according to Louis Farrakhan" I got back "1,000,000" as an answer.
