Engineering student here. Yes. All of the calculus assignments I've had over the last two semesters have been online and you would have to complete the whole 3-4 hour long assignment before having it graded. They gave you 7 chances to ace the assignment. It's just easier to use Wolfram Alpha to check your answers before submitting instead of having to do the assignment over and over.
Showed it to the president of the company I'm working at over the summer. He was impressed with how it will put anything into a proper format. Wolfram Alpha will do all the unit analysis you could ever want (except barrels of oil). Just throw the numbers in with their units and it will convert them for you before it solves the equation. It's brilliant.
