[mathcad] Mathcad 12.1 crash

Author: Snelling, Dave Posted: Sun, 7 Aug 2005 19:53:02 -0400

In case anyone should have the same problems: we recently had Mathcad
11.2a files that caused Mathcad 12.1 to crash with the message:

Application generated an exception that could not be handled

Process id=0xa00(2560), thread id=ox204(516)

The "error" was eventually traced to the fact that optimize was
inadvertently applied to a function written to read in data files. Once
optimize was removed from this function call the file opened and
calculated without error.

Product Reviews

"Our work ranges from complex medical imaging research to large-scale mapping and diagrams and we need a tool that is able to handle anything we investigate. With Mathcad, we are able to manipulate and analyse our data quickly while at the same time documenting our work, for sharing and publication. We also use it for pilot studies conducted in support of research grant applications. It is an end-to-end tool for research and development."
Dr. Kenneth Castleman, President of Advanced Digital Imaging Research (ADIR), Houston, Texas

"Mathcad is an integral product for my work... With Mathcad, itís easy to disseminate design calculations because the documents look like real math. Thereís very little I canít do in Mathcad. The main benefits come from the format, which resemble a typed set of calculations. These programs are easier to develop by engineers and easier for others to follow and review since the logic is expressed in a familiar manner. The format is what places Mathcad head and shoulders above other programs of a similar function."
Andre Pavlov, Structural Engineer, Florida Department of Transportation
