Google has now added a visual interface for its built-in calculator function, which shows 34 buttons.
The scientific calculator has functions for calculating sines, cosines and tangents along with logs, radians and also features dedicated buttons for Pi and Euler's number.
The working is pretty simple. Now when a user types a mathematical calculation in Google's search, say 4+9 or 6 x 5, Google throws up the answer instantly within the calculator.
What's interesting is that if a user searches for 'scientific calculator' in Google, even then the 34-button calculator shows up followed by other searches.
