PhotoMath

There's an app for that... unfortunately:

PhotoMath is the world’s first ‘camera calculator’. Point your smartphone’s camera towards a mathematical expression and PhotoMath instantly displays a correct result, also showing the step by step process it used to arrive at the answer.


Oh, goodie! Just what we needed; another way for the slackers to cheat their way through math classes. We already have people with bachelor degrees in engineering showing up in the workplace without a clue how to apply basic trigonometry in practical problem solving. Now they'll be arriving sans algebra and geometry skills, as well. Besides, who wants to endure all those tough math courses when you can take A Gender-Neutral Multicultural History of Underwater Lesbian Negro Basketweavers instead?
