[mathcad] Mathcad, Prime, Spirit
Author: Stephen Senn    Posted: Sat, 21 Jan 2012 18:09:03 +0100
Does anybody know what the latest version of Mathcad is called? I have 15.0 but find it gives me some problems and often used 14.0 instead. I think that something called Mathcad Spirit was being floated at some time but wonder if this morphed into Prime. If Prime is now the latest version is it backward compatible. It looks rather different from the ptc website. Thanks in advance.

Hi Stephen, The latest version is Mathcad Prime 1, but we are expecting Prime 2 early this year. Prime 1 has the following characteristics; - The concept and philosophy of Mathcad is preserved. ie, live calculation worksheet which reads like a book, variables, functions, plots, units, all dynamic and flexible, easy to use. - Completely redesigned interface, based on a more workflow orientated approach. This brings many advantages in the longer term as below. - Improved stability - Easier licensing - Not all features have been implemented, such as symbolics and 3d plots, but majority of essential features are there. - It comes with a worksheet convertor for previous versions of Mathcad. I concur that for an experienced power user of Mathcad, this version is a little bit alien, but it is definitely the way forward in order to develop with modern technology. The things I look forward to; * 64bit memory allocation support * Improved performance on the latest processors * Drawing interface for sketching concepts * Calculation server * Smoother connectivity to CAD and PLM * True numbers www.truenum.com I would recommend looking at it seriously, for new worksheets. If you have Mathcad 15, you should be entitled to Prime.

Is there any chance to have also an Mac OSX version?
