Short: V0.12 symbolic algebra program - base archive Author: bstegema@ix.urz.uni-heidelberg.de (Benjamin Stegemann) Uploader: bstegema@ix.urz.uni-heidelberg.de (Benjamin Stegemann) Version: 0.12 Type: misc/math Replaces: misc/math/LaplaceBase.lha ****************************************************************************** Laplace is now available to different CPU types. To install Laplace, use need the archive LaplaceBase.lha and at least one of Laplace000.lha Laplace020.lha Laplace020fp.lha Laplace040.lha depending of your CPU. Depack these archives into the same directory (e.g. 'RAM:') and start the installer script. ****************************************************************************** ****************************************************************************** You need MUI3.3+ and the Installer V43.3. Download them now, if you don't have them already. MUI -> util/libs/mui39usr.lha Installer -> util/misc/Installer43_3.lha ****************************************************************************** ****************************************************************************** Laplace is now SHAREWARE!! Although it is still a beta version, I decided to start with a lower price than I planned. When Laplace gets some more powerful features (like a function plotter), this price will increase. But if you register now, you won't have to pay the difference!! I will start with 20DM or US$15. See the documentation for more details. ****************************************************************************** Description: Laplace is (or at least should be) an universal tool for mathematical calculations. It lacks such a GUI with hundreds of windows like those other progs I've found on AMIGA. Instead it works like a shell, you enter a command and get the result displayed, which is much more flexible. This is just a beta version!! There WILL be much more implemented, but I need YOUR support and suggestions!!!! Features: · basic two dimensional plotter and animated plots. · works fully symbolic. · most basic complex, vector and matrix operations. · basic statistical operations on sets. · full derivation of functions. · numerical integration. · nice GUI. · offers a revolutionary way of handling experimental results with errors using gaussian error distribution. · localized. Currently english and german. · full featured installer script. · documentation in AmigaGuide. · procedures and simple programming features. Requirements: · CPU: 68000 or better (no FPU needed) · OS: 3.0 or better · MUI: 3.3 · MEM: much, 4MB should be minimum Changes since V0.10: · 28.2.1998: · ß1: Rearranged internal number handling. Error distribution should work now for complex numbers, too. Plotter and integrals can now contain complex operations, as long as the result is a real number. · 1.3.1998: · ß2: Entries can now directly be marked. Click on the left most part of the text area (the space inhabited by the prompt) to toggle, or use the menu. · ß3: Export entries as LaTeX. · 2.3.1998: · ß4: New operators ceil() and floor() . · 5.3.1998: · ß5: Added registration and bug report forms. · 6.3.1998: · ß6: Added undo/redo facility. Press HELP for undo, SHIFT-HELP for redo. · 14.3.1998: · ß7: New sections Environment variables and Command line options. · ß8: New section Reporting bugs. · 16.3.1998: · ß9: You can now cut , copy and paste marked entries. · 18.3.1998: · ß10: Added implicit multiplication, e.g. 2 a -> 2*a . But it's not possible after references, because things like a b are always treated as a(b) (function a with argument b ). · 31.3.1998: · ß11: Small bugfixes, found in symbolic derivation. Notes: German documentation is still incomplete. It's currently a wild mixture of german and english parts.
