Secret Google Functionality

[Baker]

If you goto Google, trying typing a mathematical equation into the search. It will generate the answer:

Example:



Google Search for "(13/24) * 211"

No more using "Calc" for me :d I wish I would have known about this a long time ago, that's very convenient.

or just come to #qc or #darkplaces and use feh

[Sajt]

Feh is indeed better

Baker: BTW it also converts units. Try '300 lightyears to yoctometers' for example It has a pretty good vocabulary of units.

Wicked! I also noticed that typing pi * 2 works in the Google thing too.

Or are you talking about "Feh"?

[Lardarse]

<Lardarse> feh convert 1000qu/s to m/s
<@feh> 1000qu/s is approx. 38.1 m/s.

Does that answer your question?

[Baker]

Sounds cool.

I was talking about google, but feh can do it as well.

Feh can also do more operations than Google, e.g. bitwise &, |, ^ (no bit-shift though ). Feh and google are both able to exchange currency and look up stuff in a dictionary. Both can correct spelling. Feh can translate stuff with babelfish, which google sometimes does with websites. Hm.. they're both pretty good. Feh is a blootbot ('the slowest and most bloated bot in the world!'). Who's to say how bloated and slow Google really is. I'd say it's bloated, but in a good sense
