Question

Mathcad vs SMath

Our Mathcad Community forum has an Ideas section. They don't let me in there for political reasons. Thank God they're still allowed in here.
The best idea for Mathad is to take all the good things from SMath.
I will post pictures here describing some of the benefits of SMath over Mathad.
I ask those who have access to the Ideas section to transfer my drawings there.

    34. Do you remember the SmartMath in Mathcad 15?

    36. The SMath user can change the font size of individual statements and see, for example, the entire matrix.

    SMath has not Numerical Math but Symbolical one.

      Maybe Valery means that the inline evaluation makes the original definition of the variable invisible for the symbolic engine in Mathcad and also in Prime and that seems to be a difference to the behaviour in SMath.

      I can happily live with that 'limitation' and IMHO its generally a good idea to avoid inline evaluations in Mathcad and Prime anyway.

        39. SMath vs not Mathcad 15, but Mathcad Prime
