Developer's Description

By Mark Widholm

Calculate, see and edit your entire calculation.

MathPad is a general purpose graphing scientific calculator. It uses a text window rather than simulating buttons on a hand held calculator. Formulas can be entered directly and different values can be plugged in for easy "what if" calculating. In addition to being a handy little calculator, MathPad can also take on larger problems. Simple plotting allows quick visualization of results. General purpose arrays allow calculations involving vectors, complex numbers, matrix algebra etc. 2D arrays can be displayed as grayscale or color images. Several examples are included showing such things as equation solving, curve fitting, vector calculations and numerical solution of differential equations.

Summary
This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com. This is an amazing calculator. Easy to use, yet powerful enough to handle arrays, user-defined functions and to produce simple graphs and tables. It even handles include files and compiled extensions. Note that it does not try to produce publication-quality graphs or solve algebra. It does not have a slick, colorful GUI. It is a lean, mean calculating machine. With MathPad, you enter equations, function definitions, data, etc. in a worksheet and then solve everything at once by pressing <enter>. This is a wonderful paradigm. You can instantly solve easy problems. You can break larger problems down by generating solutions for bits at a time, then combine them. You can easily change inputs or equations for what-if analysis. You can save your worksheets to have a record of your work. MathPad can have multiple worksheets open at once. MathPad is simple, powerful, fast, lean, mature, well supported and well documented. I haven't seen anything else that comes close.

This review was originally posted on VersionTracker.com. Mainly of interest to techies doing real calculations and needing to plot results. This is comparable to a dedicated graphing calculator like the Ti-83, used
