Welcome to the Math Solutions CDROM

The Math Solutions CDROM is a collection of Math related programs and
files for MS DOS, MS Windows, and Macintosh. There are plenty of
math programs, related files and solutions for every math enthusiast

that contains solutions to both common and complex math problems.
Also included on this Math CDROM is the entire HP48 calculator
archive.

Macintosh users:
----------------
The files and applications on this cdrom are sorted by category.
To access the files or applications you can double-click on the item you
are interested in or if the files are compress, you have to uncompress
them before using. There are utilities on this cdrom specifically for
this task, they are in 'MacUtils:Compression' directory.
Hints: Stuffit Expander in the "MacUtils:Compression:Stuffit Utils"
directory can uncompress all the most common formats. Copy "Stuffit
Expander 3.5.2 Installer" to your local hard disk and install this
first. Once it is installed, you can just click on the compressed
files and drag-and-drop it on the "Stuffit Expander" icon.
The compressed files are identified by their filename extension
ie, the 'program.zip' ends with a .zip extension. This will tell you
that the file 'program' is compressed using the zip compression
format.
Here is a list of other common compressed files that you can
uncompress with Stuffit Expander:
.sit
.cpt
.zip
.arc
.pkg
.gz
.uu
.Z
.hqx
.bin
Note: some folders include a readme document. You should
read the readme document before opening any files or applications.
============================================================================
MSDOS and MS Windows users
To make browsing the disc easier, we have included the VIEW program
for MSDOS and Windows in the root directory of the CDROM. This
program allows you to page through the index files, browse through
the images on the CDROM, view the documentation and uncompress the
program(s) you want onto your hard disk.
In order to start up the VIEW program, do one of the following:
For MSDOS: just type in VIEW to start to view this document. For
Windows: From the Program Manager, choose the RUN option under the
FILE menu, then enter "D: VIEW" at the run option bar. (Substitute
your CDROM drive letter for "D" if it is different.)
==========================================================================
Shareware
This disk contains many shareware programs and images. Shareware can
be considered to be a sort of try before you buy system where you are
expected to pay the program author a registration fee if you find the
program or image useful. You will find details of registration
included in the document/text files provided with each program.
