Keywords
πŸ’‘Wolfram|Alpha
Wolfram|Alpha is a computational knowledge engine that provides answers to factual queries directly by computing the answer from structured data, rather than providing a link to a website. In the video, it is the main tool used to demonstrate how to obtain step-by-step solutions for mathematical problems, such as calculating integrals, for free.
πŸ’‘Step-by-step solutions
Step-by-step solutions refer to the process of breaking down a complex problem into a series of smaller, more manageable steps that lead to the final answer. The video's theme revolves around showing viewers how to access these solutions for free on Wolfram|Alpha, which is particularly useful for educational purposes and problem-solving.
πŸ’‘Trial
A trial in this context refers to a limited-time period during which users can access a service without cost. The video describes how to obtain a 14-day trial for the Wolfram|Alpha Notebook Edition, allowing users to utilize its features for free during this period.
πŸ’‘Account creation
Account creation is the process of setting up a user profile on a service or platform. In the script, the speaker guides viewers on how to create a Wolfram account using a temporary email address from temp-mail.org, which is a necessary step to access the trial version of Wolfram|Alpha Notebook Edition.
