\"SoftwareWhen I was a child I used to have quite good marks (that is, except for Maths<\/a>). I always counted on my older sister to help me out though \u2013 you know, computers were not that popular back then. However things have changed a lot lately and the PC has become a reliable source of help for today’s children and their homework.<\/p>\n

The most obvious ones are calculators, from the Windows standard one to more advanced editions such as Excalibur<\/a>, Calctor<\/a> or Graphing Calculator 3D<\/a>, with support for plotting graphs. Still on the Science side, unit converters are also extremely useful. There are dozens<\/a> of them available, my personal favorite being Versaverter<\/a>.
