Formulaic Lite 1.1


Category: Utilities
Price: Free (iTunes)

Description:

Formulaic Lite is for anyone who uses equations - i.e. YOU - whether at work, study or play. Select an equation from the library, or easily create your own by typing in what you would write. Equations can be as simple as a conversion of units (e.g. from miles to kilometers), or involve multiple variables, nested subexpressions, etc.

Formulaic will not only evaluate your equation with the values you assign to variables, but it also includes a numerical solver that works backwards: You specify the result value of the equation; Formulaic determines the input value of any one variable used in the equation (but see limitations, below). For example, in the screenshot showing the equation "Surface Area of Cylinder", you could solve for the height of the cylinder, if you know the surface area and radius.

Key features of Formulaic Lite include:

+ Numerically evaluate equations - from very simple to rather complex - based on input values you provide

+ Numerically solve equations for any one input variable, such that the desired result value is achieved

+ Get started quickly with a selection from the equation library, including unit conversion and mathematical equations

+ Create you own equation in simple algebraic notation, with virtually no limit on number of variables or complexity of the equation

+ Use any of the built-in functions in your own equation, such as sin(), acos(), log(), min(), sqrt(), and many more, as well as constants, such as PI

More information, as well as product support, is available at www.hoymoon.net

Limitations: The numeric solver has been tuned to work well with the equations in the library. Some equations are not easily (or not at all) solvable using a numerical approach. For example, 4 = x^2 +20 does not have a "real" solution for x, and the Formulaic solver doesn't know about complex numbers.
