... Demos and examples
The following examples are allmost taken from the hypertext demo that is
distributed with the MuPAD system. Most examples are simple and are only
intend to give a brief overview on the features of MuPAD.
The examples were computed with MuPAD release 1.2.2.
If an example fails on your MuPAD version then please refer to the
current (allmost newer) online documentation that is distributed
with MuPAD. Often there not time enough to update these examples.
- Basics:
This chapter gives a first sight on basic features and data structures
of the computer algebra system MuPAD.
- Calculus:
This chapter shows how algebraic problems and problems of higher
analysis can be solved by symbolic computations in MuPAD.
- Graphics:
MuPAD has an interactive graphic tool to create and manipulate 2D and
3D graphics. We're also working on a filmtool to animate them.
- Polynomials:
This chapter gives some examples how to operate on polynomials.
- Orthogonal polynomials:
This chapter gives some examples how to create orthogonal polynomials.
- Linear Algebra:
MuPAD has a linear algebra library package. This chapter describes
how to declare rings of matrices and how to operate on them.
- Domains - User Defined Types:
MuPAD has a flexible and object oriented type concept called
domains. Users can define their own data structures/types
and may overload standard operators like *, +, etc for them. The
library package domains contains some predefined algebraic
structures and also domain constructors.
- Dynamic Modules:
Dynamic Modules are binary code function libraries that can be loaded
and also unloaded during a MuPAD session. Modules can be implemented
by every MuPAD user and allows real extensions of the MuPAD system,
without changing the kernel sources.
- Gröbner Basis for Polynomial Ideals:
MuPAD also has a groebner library package to solve systems
of polynomial equations by computing gröbner basis of polynomial
ideals.
- Further Examples:
This chapter contains some nice examples of symbolic computations in
MuPAD.
Also refer to
Release 1.2.2
to read about the new features.
- On unix computer platforms MuPAD uses an
OPENLOOK-like X11-interface, based on
the XView programming toolkit:
- For unix computer platforms we are also
developing a Motif-version. It is in its
beta test phase and will be available with the MuPAD version
after 1.2.2. In the future this substitutes
the XView version:
- On Apple Macintosh computers the user
interface differs according to the Apple
style guide:
- A first implementation (terminal version) of MuPAD for Windows-3.1
may be available in august 1995 (only for beta-testers).
