I looking for this fantastic Matematica. Is there anybody who knows where I can get this, to my AMIGA. Maybe I can find a test of this program at some ftp-bases ?? I hope someone can help me. -Gisle (gisle@solan.unit.no)

This should not bother you since Maple from Waterloo Software is available on the Amiga. (has been for quite a while and Maple V should be out soon.) If you dig into some reviews of the symbolic math programs, the three contenders are Maxima, Maple, and Mathematica. There was a review in PC World or an equivalent rag that rated Maple above the others. Unfortunately, Maple doesn't have the hype like Mathematica, but I have used all three and I'm leaning towards Maple. (on the Amiga it is the only choice that I know of) I use Mathematica on a MacIIci and SG4d/220 at work and it is a great platform. I can not imagine being without a symbolic math program when I go back to the University this fall. Check out Maple for the Amiga and I'm sure you will be pleasantly suprized! _____________________________________________________________________________ Jerry J.
