Wolfram Flight Information and Wolfram Password Generator Reference Apps
We are happy to introduce two new Wolfram Reference Apps for iOS: the Wolfram Flight Information Reference App and the Wolfram Password Generator Reference App.
Using real-time data on flight arrivals and delays, the Wolfram Flight Information Reference App can find a flight by arrival and departure city, airport name, or airport code; find out what flights are overhead at any location; display schedule and actual times for takeoff and landing; compute current airport weather conditions and compare forecasts between your departure and arrival airports; and more! It can even compute statistics about flight durations, average delay times, and on-time performance for specific airlines!
The Wolfram Password Generator Reference App can generate secure passwords at the click of a button, create single or multiple passwords of any length, test password strength and compute a score based on detailed criteria to help identify weaknesses, and compute the time it would take to hack any password. The app can also apply specific rules—such as whether to allow or disallow lowercase letters, special characters, and more—when creating passwords.
