UCALC 4.0 for Windows has finally been released. It was selected as a Top Pick on CNET's download.com, and is also in the Reviewer's Pick list on ZDNet with a 5-star rating. UCALC includes many features useful for scientific calculations and graphing: * Scientific Expression Evaluator * Eq graphing: Cartesian, polar, 3D, parametric, data files * Equation Solver * Numerical Integrator * Many scientific functions * Supports user functions and variables * Built-in and user-defined numeric formats * Unit Converter * Summation Tables * Financial Modules * General Ledger In addition to the above, UCALC introduces an innovative feature - User Solution Modules (USM). USMs are created by simply providing a math formula, and giving it a name. UCALC parses the formula and creates a template form which allows the user to solve for any item by simply filling in the blanks. USMs are saved in plain text format, and can be shared via e-mail of lists such as this. Visit UCALC's home page at http://www.ucalc.com for more details on the program. There you can view online snapshots of various features, visit the growing awards section, or download a fully functional evaluation copy. The zip file is only around 120K (there's a larger option for those who may not have common system files). Daniel Corbier Dancorbier@aol.com http://www.ucalc.com
Calculus&Mathematica is an exciting new way to learn calculus, differential equations, and matrix theory. Students are
no longer bound to the traditional classroom setting, nor do they even need to be on a college campus. Students gain valuable hands-on experience in practical calculus problems with the help of Mathematica.
Instead of using note memorization, students in Calculus&Mathematica use experimentation and real-time visualization
to learn fundamental calculus concepts and ideas.
Interactive Linear Algebra Interactive Linear Algebra is a new type of text - an interactive one. The interaction occurs by using the numerical, graphical, symbolic and
textual capabilities of Mathcad. The entire text is presented on the computer in Mathcad.
The course is taught in a laboratory setting, with or without additional lectures. Through this technology centered approach, mathematics becomes an
experimental science.
Students become active participants in the learning process, which leads to a deeper understanding of the concepts. At the same time, this approach
develops confidence in the student's ability to read, use, and write about linear algebra.
The electronic text guides the students through linear algebra and its applications with a carefully planned series of computer-based discussions,
examples, questions, and projects. With its graphics, symbolics, numerics, and editing capabilities, Mathcad provides the tools needed for
developing, visualizing, connecting, and applying the concepts of linear algebra.
