Calculus Course Assistant

Taking calculus? Then you need the Wolfram Calculus Course Assistant. This definitive app for calculus—from the world leader in math software—will help you work through your homework problems, ace your tests, and learn calculus concepts. Forget canned examples! The Wolfram Calculus Course Assistant solves your specific Calculus problems on the fly including step-by-step guidance for derivatives, integrals, and much more. This app covers the following topics applicable to Calculus, AP Calculus AB, AP Calculus BC, Calculus I, and Calculus II: - Evaluate any numeric expression or substitute a value for a variable. - Plot basic, parametric, or polar plots of the function(s) of your choice. - Determine the limit of a function as it approaches a specific value. - Differentiate any function or implicit function. - Find the critical points and inflection points of a function. - Identify the local and absolute extrema of a function. - Integrate a function, with or without limits. - Sum a function given a lower and upper bound. - Find the closed form of a sequence or generate terms for a specific sequence. The Wolfram Calculus Course Assistant is powered by the Wolfram|Alpha computational knowledge engine and is created by Wolfram Research, makers of Mathematica—the world's leading software system for mathematical research and education. The Wolfram Calculus Course Assistant draws on the computational power of Wolfram|Alpha's supercomputers over a 3G, 4G, or Wi-Fi connection.

Has not given a single proper answer yet, especially on parametrics. Don't waste your money.

There is a learning curve, but it's not that difficult to use. Of course it requires internet because it uses the Wolfram Alpha engine.

First off, this app is just a "skin" that sends your queries to the Wolfram Alpha servers. So if you lose internet access, this app won't work at all. Second, it's not very flexible in terms of inputs. The onscreen keyboard might be okay if you have a touchscreen, but this sucks if you want to use a traditional keyboard. To type in "sin(x)" you must click the "sin" button on the screen, because it will not let you type the letters in individually (can't have an "s" since that is not one of the allowed variables). While this app is at least flexible enough to allow a few common variables other than "x" (like "r", "t", and theta), the input is so frustrating that a student will spend too much time learning the quirks of the app and less time learning. As a Mathematica user, I am very disappointed in this app. Give us a "Mathematica-lite" engine so it will run offline and allow full keyboard input.

Its difficult to put in your equation, it moves way too slow for me and is not convenient when I am in search of a quick answer to a problem. Many times it did not know the answer (I assume) because after plugging in my equation it sat and loaded for longer than I could wait. This app is a waste.

I keep getting the message: Wolfram Calculus Asst does not understand your input. But no other info is asked for, only $2.99, but not worth it.

Nice app! would be nicer if it helped with separable differential equations found in section 9.3 of Stewart calculus 7E

Perfect for any AP Calculus class. Only thing is that its a tad slow to compute, but other than that perfect and saves me time!
