PocketCAS 3.5 for iOS and Mac Takes Mathematics to the Fourth Dimension - Published on 09/10/14

Daniel Alm has announced PocketCAS 3.5, an update to its powerful mathematics software for iPad, iPhone and Mac. PocketCAS is a very advanced computer algebra system which makes iOS devices capable of calculating mathematical problems in just seconds. The main target groups are scientists, engineers, teachers and students. Version 3.5 adds time series plotting, which lets the user see how the graph of a 2D or 3D function evolves over time.

Munich, Germany - Daniel Alm has announced PocketCAS 3.5, an update to its powerful mathematics software for iPad and iPhone. PocketCAS is a very advanced computer algebra system which makes iOS devices and Macs capable of calculating mathematical problems in just seconds. The main target groups are scientists, engineers, teachers and students. Version 3.5 adds time series plotting, which lets the user see how the graph of a 2D or 3D function evolves over time.

PocketCAS is a very advanced computer algebra system which turns an iPhone, iPad or Mac into a device capable of calculating complicated mathematical problems in just seconds. The main target group are scientists, mathematicians and students. PocketCAS makes their everyday work a lot easier. Apart from calculating symbolic derivatives and taylor series expansions as well as plotting cartesian and polar functions, PocketCAS computes symbolic integrals, simplifies expressions and does advanced linear algebra. A vast amount of more than 500 functions enable PocketCAS to solve almost every mathematical problem.

The integrated function plotter makes it easy to visualize formulas. Users can graph cartesian as well as polar functions without having to worry about plot settings. In spite of its sophistication, the app is still easy to use. PocketCAS ships with fifteen tutorials. There's also an easily accessible and clear searchable list of all available functions. The list is combined with examples and syntax information for almost every available function.

Almost every object in PocketCAS can be printed or exported as PDF or image. Be it the whole document, a plot, an entry or just a single formula - it can be exported for use in other applications.

Special care has been taken in order to make text input a breeze. When working with a CAS, there's a lot of different functions one might want to enter (PocketCAS is a lot more powerful than a regular scientific calculator). The iPhone's touchscreen is not very large and as much space as possible should be available for the calculations. PocketCAS therefore introduces a special mathematical keyboard with different sections. When tapping a function's key, it will be entered including braces, with the cursor in between. If text was selected prior to pressing a function key, the previously selected text will automatically be used as the argument for the entered function.

PocketCAS makes it easy to compose physical formulas. Built-in constants and physical units allow to enter formulas from a textbook without having to substitute constants manually. Entering large matrices by hand can be a huge pain, so PocketCAS' visual matrix editor assists with this task.
