There is this extension, which seems to be designed to

for:
http://www.mediawiki.org/wiki/Extension:CalcII
However, it is quite old and probably in need of updating. Nonetheless, you
can give it a try to see if it works for you. Also, if you're inclined to do
so, you could get involved in updating and maintaining the extension. I
agree, it would be a very nice thing to have for MediaWiki.

Hi,
I'm a mechanical engineer and I've been trying online calculations.
I'd like the ability to integrate calculators directly into wikipedia.
I think this live attribute would be a great asset to engineers. I put
an example up at
http://www.novanumeric.com/wiki/index.php/Quadratic_Formula I did that
using an iframe though. Is there a better to implement this?
Regards,

I too would have an interest in something like this as well. I have a
site that we are building that is for folks interested in cutting edge
physics. This might provide an interesting tool for us as well. Perhaps
something that would link into a real mathematics system even.
I,m going to look into this also.
Thanks for the link & the idea.
