RE: A Website That Will Do Your Mathematics Homework - Your Math Teacher Will First Hate You, Then Love You!

I used to live on Mathematica (which is the Maths engine behind this) whilst I was studying, so the fact you can get it for free online is awesome as I don't have access to a licence any more.

RE: Ethereum Flash Crash - $317 to $0.1 on GDAX - Programmer explains

RE: Algebra emotionally abuses me.

In this case Year = 1960 + x , so the year 1970 means x =10 and 1990 gives x = 30. What the equation gives is the number of cubic gas used in a year (not the year itself), so if you feed in the numbers
