Product: GSymbolix 1.7
Developer: Bright Software Switzerland
Distributor: Bright Software Switzerland
Bright Software, developer of well-known programs (Gate, SpaceFox, ShadowDial, and Turbo Mandelbrot), is now shipping an upgraded version of the first and only desktop application for symbolic mathematics.
GSymbolix's most impressive feature is its to symbolic expressions keyed rule-based system. This desktop program is able to expand, collect, sort, simplify, and derive algebraic expressions in a flash thanks to its fast and efficient native code. It manages up to eight equations whereby one equations can be as large as 17.500 objects.
Besides symbolic math, GSymbolix offers numerous numeric functions as well, including the best graph modules (2D and 3D) ever written for Apple II computers, root/intersection scanners, numeric integration, evaluate recursive formulae, etc. The 3D module features autoscaling, different color palettes, hidden line suppression, sample graph, perspective distortions, selectable resolution (4x4 to 124x124) and several commands for exporting graphs.
The new GSymbolix 1.7 which owners of v1.6 will receive for free introduces the next generation. GSymbolix 1.7 processes and manipulates complex formulae as easily as real ones. Besides this features which students and natural scientists will welcome heartily, Bright Software added and modified dozens of other functions: 4 display formats (selectable for 4 subgroups individually), an extended shell interface for "System Extensions" (similar to Extras in the Finder), a modeless periodic system, and much more.
GSymbolix comes - optionally - with an American manual (binder/case combination, 174 pages).
Although GSymbolix is the most powerful math application for Apple IIGS computers, it is extremely easy to use thanks to its straight forward and cleverly designed interface - put briefly the ideal educational tool. Many students, and teachers are using GSymbolix regularly. It does the tedious work for you, enabling you to concentrate on other aspects of scientific problems.
GSymbolix's retail price ranges from US$60.00 to US$140.00. You can order it with or without manual (the program has a context-sensitive online help already built-in). Special discounts for students, schools and universities are available. (Demo disk: please send US$3.00.)
