Wolphram Alpha is expectd to be a new and rich engine approach to search indexing and reasoning the internet WolframAlpha is a new SearchEngine using semantic search to answer factual knowledge.
The service is about to launch in May 2009.
Tungsten is denoted as "W", this comes from its latin word, "Wolfram" I don't know its relation to wolfram alpha, maybe it is just because it sounds cool
No, wolfram is another name for the element tungsten.
it is from the GERMAN (definitely German not Latin) word Wolfram.
Tungsten was originally called 'Wolfram' - so was given the letter W to represent it.
the latin word for tungsten is Wolfram
No for 2 reasons:1. Wolfram Alpha is a product, not a business2. Wolfram Research, the company that produces Wolfram Alpha, is privately held.
The company that owns and operates Wolfram Alpha is Wolfram Research which is named for Stephen Wolfram, the founder and CEO of Wolfram Research. As for the Alpha, I do not know. Perhaps it is because it is the first letter of the greek alphabet, and they are "Number 1"?

Use Wolfram|Alpha... go to the related link below, Wolfram|Alpha, and type in (is __ (number) prime) and then the program will compute that and tell you if it is prime or composite.
Wolfram Alpha estimates 14255.

A chart is at the Wolfram|Alpha link.
For any sort of calculation, Wolfram|Alpha is very helpful. If you have a calculation-based question, or if you need facts about food, careers, stars, or any sort of numerical data, Wolfram|Alpha is likely your best first stop. Also, if you have a math or physics problem, it's a great place to try to find a solution.
Tuesday. I found this out using Wolfram Alpha - check it out at wolframalpha.com
