[comp.sys.amiga] Physics/Math Software needed

840445m@aucs.uucp (Alan McKay) (02/28/90)

A friend of mine who is a physics student just bought himself an Amiga and
is looking for good (or even bad if that is all there is :-) software to do
physics and math oriented things.  Things like Mathematica (I know it is not
out for the Amiga), plotting packages, draw programs, etc, etc, etc.  If you
use your Amiga to do anything even *remotely* relating to physics and math,
I would appreciate it if you would tell me what you do and what software you
use, whether it was PD/ShareWare/Commercial, how much it was, where you got
it (if on FF242 or whatever).  Thanks very much for your help.

I haven't yet acquired it, but hope to: on one of the Fred Fish disks,
there is a harmonic wave editor you can listen to. This allows you
to learn about the physics of harmonics while hearing how they sound.

It's certainly in the later half of the library, somewhere above 200.
My list of which disks I want and why is at home, though.
