[KokomoHams] Google search

This is a tip from the ARRL Contest Rate Sheet for March 08, 2006

TECHNICAL LINK OF THE WEEK - While doing a Google search on a constant
(number) to try to discover its name, I found out that Google
(http://www.google.com) does calculations if you type the expression into
the search field. The Google calculator does conversions as well as
calculations, recognizes pi and e, and does trig and complex numbers. To
give examples of what it's capable of, try some of these "search"
expressions:
  sin(45 degrees)
  pi in degrees
  2m^3 in gallons
  2PI*4.7E-6*7.04E6	
  5*5/2
  e^-1
  250 ml as tablespoons
  SQRT(-4)
  Arcsin(.5)
  Arcsin(.5) in degrees
  (1+2i)*(1-2i)
  20Log(50/7)
