Hello,

first of all, thank you for the brilliant programme. I am planning to use it for education purposes. I teach some basic mechanics.
Beside being a very nice programme, its perfect as I can tell my students to download the programme and work/play with it by themselves without having problems with licenses.
Thank you for that.

Well, I am still a newbee and I am still having problems operating the programme.
I checked out the handbook as well as several postings here in the forum but I still did not get it ;-(


I try to use solve to calculate a couple of equations (eq).

• The first thing i do not understand is that Smath doesnt recognice F1 as an unknown variable?
  
• The second thing is that I can not solve the eqations .
  
• Finially I am looking for a way to substiute into formulas and then rearange formulas, automatically (If I got the postings right symbolical calculations are difficult, or?).

Does the Portable Version downloaded from that link (http://smath.info/wiki/SMath%20with%20Plugins.ashx) include maxima? or do i have to install maxima seperatly? It is written that everything is inclueded so i guess i do not have to install anything else.

I am using 0.97 (build:5346) (portable version)

Thanks for your time.

Robert


This is the file im using (there is some wording in german, but i guess its still clear what I try to do ;-)):

Thanks a lot for your help.
That's what I was looking for.

The Solve procedures are now working in my other examples as well!!


But I do still have some problems with the at() function.

Two questions to my attached file:

• What do I wrong in the first example?
  
• Is there a way to put in values at the end to get a numerical solution?

Thanks again.

Robert
