New SMath Studio 0.82 Stable available

Absolutely free mathematical program with "paper"-like interface and numerous computing features (now with integrated mathematical reference book).

SMath Studio Handheld on the Smartphone

Controls:

With consecutive pushing of this button you can choose: "1", delimiter of the number ",", "square root - sqrt", "n-th root - nthroot", "integral - int", "function to find roots of equations - solve". To lock any variant just stop pushing this button 1 second.

With consecutive pushing of this button you can choose: "number related to the button", "symbols related to this button". To lock any variant just stop pushing this button 1 second.

With consecutive pushing of this button you can choose: "plus operator", "minus operator", "multiplication operator", "division operator", "exponentiation operator", "plus/minus operator", "factorial", "vector multiplication operator". Also with this pushed button you can highlight the part of equation by using Left/Right buttons.

By "clicking" on this button program will numerically calculate equation (this means "="); by pushing button more than 0,4 sec. program will symbolically calculate equation (this means "->"). Also, if the cursor located on the right of the not defined variable or not defined function this button will create a definition operator (this means ":=" ).

Removing last character (Backspace). In the mathematical reference book this button means "Back".

    Hi smath!

    Thanks again for your brilliant work! Unfortunatelly I have to report a bug I found. I use the Windows Version. When I first open smath everything works fine, but if I open the reference book and close it again I can't insert formulars, text, ... anymore. The same error appears with the Portable Version. Another point is when I open the reference book again it is empty.

    I'm really sorry to report this!!! Sad

    By the way how to add a second graph into a plot?

    Thanks and sorry again!!

    Ciao Jakob

    Many thanks, Jakob!

    I've fixed described issue and have updated the distributives.

    Please, use sys(..) function. I will create a small howto as soon as I'll find a time.

    Hello Andrey,

    I could see that on my computer here "]" keystroke will not give the "range" function but "line". On the other hand even three keystrokes """ , "{" , "}" will give "insert text" option. This might be again due to my old computer. I'll try tomorow on some other computers.

    BTW, OchkovVE gives the hystory of "Range variable" and its primer use in Mathcad. I did not quite understand all the text (Russian) but in my experience there might be some inconsistencies and frustrations sometimes with different types of variables. Range variables in the first place and matrices (vectors) in the second place. In SMath the range variable is defined as matrix at the moment. Is this better then the definition in Mathcad? I do not know at the moment. We (Mathcad users) are used to use range variables to define matrix (vectors) indices together with their values. In SMath that functionality is not yet defined.

    Regards,
    Radovan

    You are right, sorry. Change "Added new keystroke - "]". Can be used to insert "range" function" removed from change log.

    Yeah, I know. I hope to allow such actions in the future.

    You always write, that vectors are not implemented in SMath Studio. This is not true. Vector is a matrix column here (with regards to the math rules). So, matrix with one column is a vector. And... result of the range function is a vector also.
    Working with vectors, matrices, arrays, tables (?) in Mathcad is not easy in some cases. SMath Studio has no Array Type now, you simply can use Vector Type in exchange.

    Sorry, Andrey you are right. I forgot that due to Mathcad "thinking". I always assume that the vector is an array with one index-subscript (by convection Mathcad uses this as matrix column omitting the second index - some other software uses "vector<=>matrix row" ). You are also right about Mathcad and its treating vectors and matrices. Sometimes there are inconsistencies in using some of the functions on vectors and matrices - do not understand why.

    In SMath there are always two index - subscripts concerning that for vectors the second index is always one. I hope I am right about this.
    BTW, you mentioned Vector Type and the "Type" of data. The Vector Type is defined by Insert Matrix or the function which returns matrix. Am I right? What are the other Types? I think (not sure) that there are no functions in SMath to check what kind of data is the particular variable?. I suppose that there are only two numerical Types, scalar type and vector type?

    Radovan
