What is Reddit's opinion of Symbolab Math Solver?

From 3.5 billion Reddit comments

You guys should also check out Symbolab. It's also on the app store. My eternal thanks to them for doing this for free, unlike some others out there... ^looking ^at ^you, ^Wolfram ^Alpha

Just incase people haven't heard of it. I think Symbolab is a better and free alternative to Wolfram Alpha Pro. It has less functions, but most if not all functions that are necessary for math problems. In my opinion the interface is much easier to use (e.g. you can just press enter matrix and fill in the matrix instead of writing everything with brackets) and it also includes a very expandable form of the step by step solutions, for free.

I'll add

• Slader - textbook solutions and questions, especially for college materials.

• Symbolab - an advanced calculator that can do everything from basic algebra to basic calc stuff.

• Project Gutenberg - a treasure trove of ebooks. Especially the classics.

Edit: apologies for the terrible formatting. I'm on mobile

Symbolab - a free step-by-step math calculator similar to Wolfram-Alpha

Just Watch - a streaming service search engine that allows you to search or browse Netflix, Hulu, HBO Go, etc.

Camelcamelcamel - an Amazon price history tracker to see if sales are really sales

I also highly suggest Symbolab it is free and there is an app if you want it on the phone. Shows step by step how to solve. WolframAlpha is awesome and powerful, but can't beat the free step by step on a web browser.

Doesn't work for certain problems I guess (case in point: http://www.symbolab.com/solver/integral-calculator/%5Cint(%5Cfrac%7Bx%5E%7B2%7D%7D%7B4%7D%2By%5E%7B2%7D%2Bz%5E%7B2%7D)%5E%7B-%5Cfrac%7B3%7D%7B2%7D%7D%20dy/?origin=button)

please edit your post to be mathematical correct

is this the function you want to integrate? since then its quite alot of steps

The first 2 steps are correct. In the third step, make sure you differentiate the right side as well. In this case, you should use the product rule and the chain rule. After differentiating both sides, you isolate for dy/dx by multiplying the right by y. It is important to note that y=(sinx)^x so that your answer is in terms of x.

If you still are struggling with this, it is also helpful to look at online resources such as Wolfram Alpha and my personal favourite, Symbolab.

Your answer might be correct. However, this is a much better method: Answer. Personally I recommend using Symbolab for any HW Assignments you have. It really helps me if I'm not sure about a problem.

Honestly I'm going to be a jerk and say yes, I'm asking for the work. I'm having a hard time wrapping my head around this all. I'm trying to use this link http://www.symbolab.com/solver/definite-integral-calculator/%5Cint_%7B0%7D%5E%7B4%7D%20xe%5E%7B(-x)%5E2%7Ddx/?origin=button

A couple of options, one free, one not.

My school gave us licenses for MathType. It's the software Microsoft licensed to use as its equation editor in Word, but Microsoft from what I read never updated it. The creators maintained the software going forward, and it does a LOT more than Word does natively. It has its interface quirks that take getting used to, but it doesn't take long and typing up complex equations is not difficult. Tedious sometimes, but it's not really hard at all. Does drag and drop, handwriting recognition, etc.

Cost is $97, but if you have MS Word you already have the older style equation editor and possibly handwriting recognition as well. (its in OneNote if I remember right)

Second is to use something like Symbolab. It's essentially a WYSIWYG type editor for math, and I believe it uses Latex on the backend anyway (copy and paste a formula into Notepad to see the source). It's totally free and online.

For future editing purpsoes, Word's equation editor is probably your best bet, or MathType. Both allow you to double-click the equation in word and pop up the relevant editor.

BTW for rendering to image, you could type up in Symbolab and then screenshot. Office has the built-in Window-S key combination to take an instant screenshot -- but that may also be tied to OneNote. Regardless there is also the "snippet" tool in Windows now, just a couple extra steps. Personally I do this a lot, writing up equations in MathType or finding them online (also graphs, even screenshot snippets from video lecture blackboards) and then pasting the images into Anki for study with explanatory text. It actually goes pretty fast when you have the workflow down.
