. example of variable assignment in WolframAlpha

But you state that is not possible.

I believe I have also seen examples of function definition in WolframAlpha, but I can't find one at the moment.

The issue seems to be finding the notation that consistently works correctly.

That isn't possible. Wolfram|Alpha is designed to give verbose answers to simple inputs, not vice versa. Definitions are not an available feature. As Laurent noted, the best choice for multi-line evaluation is Mathematica or the Wolfram Programming Cloud.

Thanks Bill & Okkes. I discovered I could input formulas similar to what Okkes sent on this site.

Barely fits

It would be nice if anyone could point to a paragraph somewhere that described exactly how to get WolframAlpha to consistently understand user function definitions and user variable assignments to allow shortening of input for successful evaluation.
