A search system can be used to quickly find calculators and reference data.

Adware and spyware free. Please read the privacy statement of Dot Point Learning Systems.

The main calculator has over 20 functions, and includes the ability to store and recall up to 10 values.

All calculations performed by the calculator are recorded in a note pad area for cutting and pasting elsewhere.

Incorporated into the calculator is one of the most extensive measurement converters available.

The calculator can determine the molecular mass of a compound by typing in its formula.

The molecular formula of a compound can be included into an equation, and the calculator automatically converts the molecular formula into molecular mass.

Data can be pasted directly into the calculator from clipboard, or data can be found from drop down lists and then copied into the calculator.
