Funny I have pointed the same phenomenon on a french forum just yesterda=
y.  =

Mostly the same in france.

But I do not think this is a too much bad thing, as this is not a kind o=
f  =

the worst and this may be useful where quick algorithmic modeling is  =

required. Yes, there may be better choices, but the purpose of  =

Biology/Physic/etc students, is not to pass a Computer Science degree.

I just wish this is not use when proof-by-model is expected (as this is =
 =

sometime done in Astronomy to explore theories). I hope then some more  =

checkable systems are used just to ensure the system did not created wro=
ng  =

results.
