UCALC v2.4 ========== Features added -------------- o Graphic plotting: - Fast plotting - CGA, EGA, Hercules, and VGA modes - Cartesian, Polar, and Parametric graphs - LINE, FILL, and RECTangle commands - Data from another file can be plotted - Support for up to 16 supper-imposed multi-color user graphs - Smart crosshair (moves gradually faster as you hold arrow keys) - Adjustable screen coordinate system - Adjustable precision for graphs o Ucalc now supports the factorial symbol (!). o There are other nice features that would have been added in this version but I need to hear the suggestions from you. Talk to me. Anyone out there using UCALC? :). Your financial support (registration) will also be greatly appreciated. Changes ------- o The syntax for several commands is more flexible. For instance LOAD"MYFILE.DEF", LOAD MYFILE.DEF, LOAD(MYFILE.DEF), are equivalent. Also, the ".." used in SOLVE, SUM, etc.. can be replaced by " to ". For instance SUM(x,1 to 10) is the same as SUM(x,1..10). o The variable PI, and the functions SEC (secant), CSC (cosecant), and COT (cotangent) are now built in. o The function definition space has been greatly increased, so that many more user functions can be defined. Each expression however can use a maximum of 33 operators. o Due to support for the factorial notation with the "!" symbol, the "!=" symbol for "not equal" is no longer supported. "<>" should be used instead. o So that UCALC can start up a bit faster, UCALC.DEF has been removed. Users can create their own UCALC.DEF file, or can modify, and rename UCALC.DE back to UCALC.DEF. o Several extra features are now reserved for those who register. Bug fixes --------- o Functions with multiple parameters can be a part of user functions without giving an error message. o UCALC /? no longer changes the screen color attribute. UCALC v1.8 ========== Features added -------------- o Support for user functions with multiple parameters. o Support for implicit multiplication. o UCALC.DEF can contain any command. o Variable 'last' contains the value of the previous expression o Commands to change or remove the "ucalc> " and "Answer: " prompts o PRINT, SHELL, LOAD, WRITE (save), CLOSE, EXIT (quick exit), LISTF (list user functions) commands. Changes ------- o FIX controls number of decimal digits rather than total digits. o DIG command added to do what FIX used to do. o Due to support for implicit multiplication, users should now avoid giving a function the same name as a variable. o All the features previously reserved only for registered users are now available in the shareware evaluation copy. (This, unfortunately, seems to have been a bad decision, as the registration rate has dropped considerably). Bug fixes --------- o F1 and CLS no longer change color screen attributes. o Variables with embedded numeral digits no longer confuse the parser. o UCALC.DEF in a different directory no longer causes a problem.
