FauxTeX 1.1(Demo) |
FauxTeX is a collection of
three fonts that can be used to create a range of mathematical
expressions, from the simple to the moderately complex. The fonts are
based on the Computer Modern family, which was originally designed by
Professor Donald Knuth for his TeX typesetting language.
Cymbol serves as a substitute for the standard Symbol font, and contains the complete Greek alphabet as well as all the other symbols found in the Symbol font. MathMode contains many common symbols and the entire Roman alphabet, italicized for mathematical expressions. KahoeTech is primarily for creating expressions that involve superscripts and subscripts. This demo only includes Cymbol (PostScript and TrueType versions); MathMode and KahoeTech are only available to registered users, though you can view these two fonts in the PDF files included with the demo. |

GrafEq(Demo) |
GrafEq is an easy-to-use program for graphing equations encountered in the secondary precalculus curriculum. Specifically, GrafEq can graph linear functions, polynomial functions, conics, trigonometric functions, and exponential functions. Designed with the mathematics educator and secondary student in mind, the program offers several features that can be particularly useful in the classroom setting, such as user-defined constants and ticks, zoom capabilities, file saving and loading, and printing. | ||||||

Maple V 68k(Demo) |
Maple V is a powerful
mathematical problem-solving and visualization system used worldwide in
education, research, and industry. Its principal strength is its symbolic
problem-solving algorithms.
Unlike conventional math software, which can only work with floating-point numbers, Maple V can solve problems involving formal mathematical definitions and return answers as mathematical objects. Derived from over a decade of world-class research and development and customer service. |

MathReader 68K(Freeware)4.18 MB |
MathReader is a viewer for notebook
documents created with Mathematica, the world's only fully integrated
technical computing system. MathReader lets you display and print
Mathematica notebooks, animate graphics, play sounds, and copy information
from notebooks to other documents. MathReader can be used by most web
browsers as a helper application for viewing notebook documents. To create, edit, and print notebooks, you need the Mathematica front end. To do computations within a Mathematica notebook, you need the full Mathematica system with both the front end and the kernel. |

PowerCalc 3.2(Shareware)502K |
PowerCalc is a shareware
calculator for Mac OS unlike any you've ever seen! With PowerCalc, you can
easily calculate dozens of mathematical functions and operations.
PowerCalc has a user-friendly, intuitive interface. It has complete
balloon help, so if you're not sure what a button does, just turn on
balloon help and point to it. PowerCalc supports standard, scientific, and
engineering notations and can perform any of twenty-four trigonometric
functions in either degree or radian mode. PowerCalc can store any four
numbers in memory and can be recall them at any time. They're even saved
after you've quit the program! Input may be from the mouse or keyboard,
and PowerCalc even has a backscape button in case you accidently input the
wrong digit!
PowerCalc is a powerful RPN calculator. This versatile calculation tool provides more than 140 mathematical functions, ranging from scientific to logical calculation, from matrix algebra to statistics, and from complex to rational calculation. Also included in the package are powerful conversion tools. |

Starry Night Basic 2.1.3(Shareware)3.5 Mb |
Both
amateur and professional astronomers will find this impressively complete
and full-featured program interesting and useful. By default, when you
open the program, it will show you the sky from whichever city is set in
the Map control panel. You can toggle off the daylight to see the night
sky. You can selectively choose to view -- or choose not to view -- the
Milky Way, stars, planets, and/or deep sky features you'd normally only be
able to view with a telescope. Starry Night can also outline the
constellations and divide the sky by local guides, equatorial guides,
ecliptic guides, and galactic guides. You can then use the scroll bars to
view the sky around you 360 degrees, or to scroll up to see what the sky
would look like directly above your head and directly below your feet
(assuming you've turned off the horizon). You're not restricted to your home and the current time, however. The program will gradually change the sky as time elapses, but you can also change the clock to see, for instance, what the sky will look like in a few hours, tomorrow, or 5000 years from now. You can also use the Location command to select a viewing site from anywhere on the Earth's surface (you can select a site on a map, or from a list of countries and geographic locations), any one of the solar system's other planets, or their moons, or even from one of several imaginary earth satellites. You can even view the sky from the Halley, Hale-Bopp, or Hyakutake comets. If that's not enough, you can also set the Cartesian coordinates for the heliocentric ecliptic position for any point in the solar system. If you are an astronomy novice, you might have trouble identifying stars and planets, since Starry Night doesn't label them for you. But for its price, this program is a great companion for an astronomy course or star-gazers who want to find the perfect night for viewing. Version 2.1.3 includes a manual, the LiveSky plug-in that allows more interaction between Starry Night and your astronomical Internet bookmarks, an InfoGenie plug-in that allows cataloging of information via the Casady and Greene database, vastly improved graphics, and much more. |

YaCa 2.2(Shareware) |
YaCa is a calculator that performs the same functions as a scientific calculator. Simple conversions are also available, such as angle, speed, time, temperature, and many more. Other features include savable logs, color schemes, international number formats, and undo/redo. Version 2.2 adds some buttons and a new fixed point mode. | ||||||
