Math wizards take note. Chromey Calculator is an extension for the Google Chrome web browser that offers access to most of Wolfram|Alpha’s and Google’s mathematical calculations and functions.

The extension places one of those dreaded icons in the Google Chrome header that opens a popup window when clicked on.

Here it is then possible to perform calculations and conversions easily. Supported among others are for instance:

• Mixed unit calculations — 2 mi + 4 km + 3 light-years in feet
• Unit conversion — 1/4 cup in tablespoons
• Currency conversion — 56 dollars in euros
• Hex, octal, binary — 4 + 0xAF + 0o71 + 0b10 in hex
• Mathematical functions — tan(pi/4), log(10), sqrt(2), etc.
• Mathematical and physical constants — pi, e, h, c, etc.
• Solve equations — solve(2 x^2 – 1 = 0)
• Derivatives and integrals
• Vector calculations
