Internet Resource - WolframAlpha

This website is a computational knowledge engine whose purpose is to make all systemic knowledge immediately computable by anyone. As of now, Wolfram|Alpha contains 10+ trillion pieces of data, 50,000+ types of algorithms and models, and linguistic capabilities for 1000+ domains.

The Example button will provide you with a sampling of the computable possibilites in 29 diverse areas, including Socioeconomic Data, Life Sciences, Mathematics, Money and Finance, Statistics and Data Analysis, Food & Nutrition, Health & Medicine and others.

Or search the free text search window, give it a try, type in a date, city name, a calculation or ask for the median wage of an accountant.
