This post is an edited version of my last post in this thread; I repeat it in more compact form.
Just enter into your browser search box a currency conversion, arithmetic or maths expression and it will display the result in the search results area.
I use Opera, and tried the following search items - I won't list the results, which were all correct.
The calculations seem to be expedited by use of search engine DuckDuckGo. All of them worked in Opera, and some (I only tested a few) in other Browsers - but the key is using DuckDuckGo as your search engine.
Note: in other browsers, and using Google, some calculations went to different solvers.
verbatim:
£100 Eur (currency conversion, goes to xe.com)
£100 $ (ditto)
In the following group, all showed the result and opened a calculator
3*4 (simple multiplication)
3/7 (simple division)
ln(4) (natural log of 4)
sin(pi/7) value of pi, division, and trig)
In the following group, in Opera, it opens symbolab.com.
d(x)/dx (differential calculus )
d(x^2)/dx (differential calculus )
d(x^2+x+1)/dx (differential calculus )
integral x^2.dx (integral calculus )
integral (x^3+4*x) (integral calculus)

Alfred, could you please put a link to this in the maths group.
Of course I could, Jack, but since it’s your topic you might like to put it there yourself! Right-click on the ‘Today 12:01:32’ timestamp at the top of your post, retrieve the URL from the context menu and then paste the link into a new post in the Mathematics & Science’ forum.

EDITED
Other browsers went to different solvers, I tried only a couple in Firefox. Sadly, I find that Maxthon doesn't show any results other than links to various currency and maths solvers. Not so good after all! Vivaldi does a few, but generally shows several links.

Depending on browser, in the following group,
in Opera, it opens symbolab.co.
In Firefox some, simple functions open cuemath.com, and otherwise all link to other maths solvers.
d(x)/dx (differential calculus -goes to symbolab.com)
d(x^2)/dx (differential calculus -ditto)
d(x^2+x+1)/dx (differential calculus -ditto)
integral x^2.dx (integral calculus - ditto)
EDITED to show more calculations.
I could have put this into the scientific thread group, but I think it is of general use, Maybe more people will see it here .The youtube video is : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EQdVXPO6vg8, "14 Computer Tricks You Wish You Learned Sooner", by Bright Side. Alfred, could you please put a link to this in the maths group.
