MathCad is a computer algebra system similar to Mathematica, distributed by Mathsoft.

It is oriented around a worksheet, in which equations and expressions are displayed graphically, as opposed to plain text.

Among the capabilities of MathCad are:

  • Solving differential equations, with several possible numerical methods
  • Graphing functions in two or three Dimensions
  • The use of the Greek alphabet (upper and lower case) in both text and equations
  • Symbolic calculations
  • Vector and matrix operations
  • Symbolically solving systems of equations
  • Curve Fitting
  • Implementing subprograms
  • Finding roots of polynomials and functions
  • Statistical functions and probability distributions
  • Finding eigenvalues and eigenvectors
  • Calculations in which units are bound to quantities
