How PTC Mathcad Prime 3.0 works
PTC Mathcad Prime 3.0 lets you type equations just as
you would write them on a blackboard or read them
in a reference book. There’s no difficult programming
language or syntax to learn; you simply type in
your equations and see the results. You can use the
equations to solve virtually any math problem you
encounter. And you can place text anywhere on the
worksheet to document your work.
PTC Mathcad Prime 3.0 also lets you easily set
your preferred unit system and freely mix units of
measure, ultimately maintaining dimensional integrity
and preventing unit mistakes. You can work in your
preferred unit system or switch to another system for
a particular set of equations.
PTC Mathcad’s live mathematical notation, units intel
–
ligence, and powerful calculation capabilities, pre
–
sented within an easy-to-use interface, allows engi
–
neers and design teams to communicate their critical
design and engineering knowledge.
PTC Mathcad does what spreadsheets, word process
–
ing, presentation software and programming applica
–
tions simply cannot do – it brings powerful calculation
capabilities into human-readable form. It integrates
these human-readable, live calculations with plots,
graphs, text, and images into a single, interactive,
professionally presented document. This ease and
familiarity of an engineering notebook enables design
exploration, validation and verification, and the clear
communication of critical engineering information.
You don’t need to be a PTC Mathcad expert to read and
understand PTC Mathcad documents.
PTC Mathcad Prime 3.0 has significantly improved its
calculation capability to allow bigger problems to be
solved, faster. With hundreds of built-in mathematical
functions and the unlimited ability to define your own,
PTC Mathcad supports your advanced engineering
design exploration requirements, including the ability
to solve equations both numerically and symbolically,
and the ability to solve complex systems of equations.
The result is a comprehensive tool allowing every
engineer – from the casual user who simply needs
to document the source of design parameters, to
the power user who needs to perform sophisticated
design studies and trade-off analyses – to spend more
of their time actually engineering.
Live mathematical notation, units intelligence, and powerful
calculation capabilities, all within an easy-to-use interface.
