Mathcad Prime 10

Mathcad Prime 9 introduces a suite of features designed to enhance productivity and usability, responding to popular demand from users. Here’s what’s new:

• Advanced controls: With advanced controls, users have the ability to enhance their worksheets with controls including list boxes, radio buttons, checkboxes, buttons, sliders, and text boxes. These empower users to precisely define the behavior of each control within the worksheet. This feature provides a configurable and detailed approach to manipulating variable values, through scripting with VBScript and JScript.
• Choice of solving algorithms: With Mathcad Prime 10 you can now choose a solving algorithm for functions and definite integrals. Functions enhanced include pdesolve, odesolve, numol, genfit, polyroots, find, minimize, maximize, minerr and algorithms for calculating definite integrals. This allows you greater flexibility and control over the results of your calculations.
• Subscript and superscript in documentation: You can now apply subscript and superscript formatting in your text regions for documenting variable identifiers or parameters with exponents.
• Quick Textbox Conversion: By pressing the spacebar while typing in a new region, you can instantly convert it from the default math area to a textbox, streamlining your workflow and increasing efficiency.

These updates make Mathcad Prime 10 an even more powerful tool for engineers looking to streamline their calculation processes.

Mathcad Prime 9 provides a range of innovative enhancements, driven by customer feedback, that enrich its symbolics engine and introduce functionalities unprecedented in earlier versions. Here’s what’s new:

• Expanded use of the keyword fully: Mathcad Prime 10 has expanded the use of the keyword fully with additional use cases. We also added support for the modifiers fact and max for this keyword.
• New standard keyword: We have added a new keyword, standard, which allows for Big-O notation with series expansion, as well as showing the constant of integration in indefinite integrals.
• Improved support for undefined: We have improved support for undefined results in the symbolic engine, providing greater compatibility and equivalency with the numeric engine’s NaN, allowing for symbolic support of the NaN class of functions.
• General keyword improvements: There are general improvements for the keywords rewrite, solve, and simplify. Rewrite is expanded with five new modifiers, arg, atan2, fact, sign, and Φ, to allow rewriting expressions in their respective terms. solve and simplify have many additional supported use cases.
• Improved Calculus Operators: Improvements to derivatives, limits, integrals, and summations offer expanded capabilities and precision in symbolic calculations.
• Expanded Keywords and Functions: The functionality of several symbolic keywords and functions has been extended. For instance, the ‘assume’ keyword allows you to set specific assumptions for the results of functions, enhancing solution relevance and accuracy.

These updates ensure that Mathcad Prime 9 remains vital for engineers seeking advanced mathematical and computational solutions.
