[comp.sys.mac] Partial list of Math packages

wmcb@ecsvax.UUCP (William C. Bauldry) (05/13/87)

Recently there have been a couple of queries searching for math packs.
Here is an incredibly tiny, non-exhaustive list:
- MathMacPac (Advanced Logist. for Math. and Sci.)
     includes: systems,roots, ode's, graphing, fft's, etc.
- MacMathPascal (Coherent Cognition)
             : fft's, num. integration, ode's, interpolation, etc.
- MacNumeriacl Recipes (Numeric Recipes, Inc.)
             : interp., sorting, spec. functions, eigen-systems, fft's,etc.

... have nothing offer concerning speed, accuracy, etc.

The people at THE MATH WORKS INC. were, at one time, working
on MatLab for the MAC. MatLab stands for matrix laboratory.
It provides access to matrix software developed by the
LINPACK and EISPACK projects....state of the art software
for matrix computation.
My personal opinion is that MatLab is terrific.....I have it
for my IBM-PC.
