Microsoft Mathematics
Microsoft Math, also known as Microsoft Mathematics, is a freely downloadable educational program, designed for mobile platforms (iOS and Android), that allows users to solve math and science problems. Developed and maintained by Microsoft, it is primarily targeted at students as a learning tool.
Microsoft Math was originally released as a bundled part of Microsoft Student. It was then available as a standalone paid version starting with version 3.0. For version 4.0, it was released as a free downloadable product[1] and was called Microsoft Mathematics 4.0. While no longer in active development or support, Microsoft Mathematics 4.0 can still be downloaded from the official Microsoft Website.[2]
A related freeware add-in, called Microsoft Mathematics Add-In for Word and OneNote, was also available from Microsoft and offers comparable functionality (Word 2007 or higher is required).[3][4]
Microsoft Math received the 2008 Award of Excellence from Tech & Learning Magazine.[5]
