Short: V0.8.1 symbolic algebra program
Author: bstegema@ix.urz.uni-heidelberg.de (Benjamin Stegemann)
Uploader: bstegema@ix.urz.uni-heidelberg.de (Benjamin Stegemann)
Version: 0.8.1
Type: misc/math
*******************************************************************
This is just a little bugfix of the installer script.
A small but serious bug could have deleted some of your
system directories... :-(
*******************************************************************
*******************************************************************
You need MUI3.3+ and the Installer V43.3
Download them now, if you don't have them already.
MUI -> util/libs/mui39usr.lha
Installer -> util/misc/Installer43_3.lha
*******************************************************************
Discription:
Laplace is (or at least should be) an universal tool for
mathematical calculations. It lacks such a GUI with hundreds
of windows like those other progs I've found on AMIGA.
Instead it works like a shell, you enter a command and get the
result displayed, which is much more flexible.
This is just a beta version!!
There WILL be much more implemented, but I need ->»YOUR«<- support
and suggestions !!!!
Features:
- works fully symbolic.
- most basic real, vector and matrix operations.
- basic statistical operations on sets.
- full derivation of functions.
- nice GUI.
- offers a revolutionary way of handling experimental results
with errors using gaussian error distribution.
- localized. Currently english and german.
- full featured installer script
- documentation in AmigaGuide, ASCII and DVI
- procedures and simple programming features
Requirements:
- CPU: 68020 or better (no FPU needed)
- OS: 3.0 or better
- MUI: 3.3
- MEM: much!!!
Changes since V0.6:
- lots of minor fixes and improvements
- complete new parser featuring procedures etc.
- complete new GUI (even if you can't see a big difference..)
Notes:
I think, this version is quite crappy... A lot of things have changed,
but this was spread over a quite long period of time, so I some
lost the survey. I think that there are a lot of bugs... It's
time to make it public, so you can help me finding them!!
There are also some things mentioned in the manual that are currently
not implemented or menu entries that don't work:
- 'Project/Iconify', 'Project/Preferences', 'Project/Delete' don't work
- 'Project/Load..' always uses the current window
- probably more things that I forgot. PLEASE REPORT 'EM!!!!
There is a quite interesting bug: sometimes the manual is display, if you
select the menu entry 'Help/Index', sometimes nothing happens... Don't know
where the problem is...
Another problem (that is caused by MUI) is that you can't use 'Help/Search..'
twice. MUI keeps a lock on the temporary index file, so it can't be
overwritten. You have to open another guide, before you can use 'Help/Search..'
again.
