  • This program helped me in solving a lot of my mechanical problems related to gears, design standards & structural problems. Now we can run it on our mobiles also. Thanks for this useful program.

    by Sudhir Gill

  • I'm a student of civil engineering and SMath has become an invaluable tool for "by hand" calculations of my assignments. I can't believe other students are still using MS Word and a regular calculator.

    by Filda

  • Succeeds where MathCad falls short. Used daily as an electrical engineer. Highly recommend.

    by Andy Burke

  • Smath-Studio is a compelling mathematical application. It allows for quick and efficient symbolic and numerical calculations, making it a better alternative to MathCad, and Mathematica. The developers continue to add new features and functionality to this program regularly. I have been using this application for six months and love it. I tip my hat to the developers, well-done guys!

    by Jorge M. Gonzalez PE

  • This fantastic free alternative to Mathcad is going from strength to strength and I am really enjoying watching its progress. Andrey has produced something that is genuinely useful, multiplatform, fun to use and, most importantly of all, he listens to his users. Well worth a download.

    by Mike Croucher

  • SMath Studio is a great alternative to MathCAD. It is small and portable. I use it primarily for structural engineering calculations and for documenting my work. Many thanks to Andrey and the other developers for this great tool.

    by Eric Durham

  • The best software for Engineers. Easy, lightweight and comprehensive. Kudos to its Developer.

    by Shafiq

  • Simple and Elegant

    by Egbert Sales

  • Smath is easy to use tool and its is freeware.I used for engineering calculations instead of easing excel. Its a time saver.

    by Naresh varikuntla

  • Great software. Easy to use. Looks nice.

SMath Studio in publications

SMath Studio plug-ins (all plug-ins...)

The functionality of the program can be expanded through the installation of plug-ins created by third-party developers and companies, as well as those prepared by the SMath LLC team. Most plug-ins are open source and can be modified if necessary.

I had hoped for round-half-to-even instead of away from zero.
  • This is IEEE 754 default rounding mode
  • It is most common in engineering
  • It is the way I teach my students


What is the motivation of the design decision of rounding half away from zero?

The step-in feature without breakpoints is great.
This is a major step towards a very convenient context-inspector.

IMHO these features could be useful:
- Context display at cursor location (what you would see if there was a breakpoint there), perhaps some execute-to-cursor button
- Reliable call-outs for dynamic formatted display of the context items (currently, sometimes the callout doesn't show up)

Martin, I'm recieving many e-mails regarding "rounding is unpredictable".
Personally I do not see significant benefits from round-half-to-even (because SMath Studio never knows source of the data it works with), but this, of course, has no sence.

The benefit is that if summing up large numbers of rounded numbers then you don't get a systematic bias.
In round away from zero this is true only if the distribution of the numbers is symmetric to zero.

Maxima implements round to even.

As the type of rounding seems to be a matter of taste I would recommend to make this a settings item, at least for result formatting. For explicit rounding one could have separate functions or an optional argument.

====================================
Well, there is "rounding & rounding" ... most interesting:
http://mathworld.wolfram.com/RoundoffError.html

Nothing is absolutely true in this world.
1. NO math computations are true.
2. NO measurements are true.
3. NOT all minutes have 60 seconds ... What !

Yes "What" ... once in a while there is a Savant Lab [in Paris]
that adjusts the universal time ± 1 second.
I can survive the conventional ½ way up/down.

Cheers ... Jean.
