Upstream changelog excerpt:
CHANGES MADE TO MATHOMATIC V14.4.2:
General cleanup and fixes.
5/15/09 - Slight improvement made to simplification; results are more
simple and stable.
5/20/09 - Added info to the Mathomatic man page and to the "AUTHORS"
file.
5/25/09 - The maximum integer that can be factored has been raised from
14 to 15 decimal digits.
Mathomatic version 14.4.3 released 2009-05-25
CHANGES MADE TO MATHOMATIC V14.4.3:
5/25/09 - Small fix made to fraction command and "simplify fraction" for
better looking fractions.
5/26/09 - Added a "simplify quickest" command option, which does no
unfactoring nor factoring.
5/28/09 - Made full simplification more efficient and simpler by cutting
out unnecessary loops.
5/31/09 - Improved the divide command and enabled its use in the symbolic math library.
Enabled code and variables commands in library, too.
Currently, library output of these 3 commands can only be gathered by redirecting to a file.
6/2/09 - Added "set autoselect" and "set auto" options. Use "set no auto" to always store
entered expressions into equation spaces, unless it is a command.
Mathomatic version 14.4.4 released 2009-06-03
CHANGES MADE TO MATHOMATIC V14.4.4:
General cleanup and addition of helpful descriptive text.
6/9/09 - "primes/mult" improved and renamed to "primes/matho-mult",
so you can install as a unique program, if you wish.
"primorial 1" works now, too.
Roots command enabled in the symbolic math library.
6/10/09 - Fixed factor command parameter handling and results, it was not user friendly.
Also fixed factor command for consistent behavior in the symbolic math library.
6/14/09 - Allow separate install of Mathomatic binaries and
documentation in makefile.
Mathomatic version 14.4.5 released 2009-06-14
CHANGES MADE TO MATHOMATIC V14.4.5:
Cleanup and major bug fixes.
6/22/09 - For easier expression determination and reading, changed all simplification to not
factor out the GCD of integer coefficients. I can make this an option, if anyone
wants this back. It is set by the variable "integer_coefficients" in "globals.c".
Also fixed a complication in polynomial factoring.
6/24/09 - Fixed some algebraic fraction complications in the calculate
command results.
Mathomatic version 14.5.0 released 2009-06-24
CHANGES MADE TO MATHOMATIC V14.5.0:
Enhanced code for use with iPhone.
6/25/09 - Re-added explicit use of ncurses library with readline because
Slackware requires it.
6/26/09 - Display command usage info when a Mathomatic command fails, to
be helpful.
Mathomatic version 14.5.1 released 2009-07-05
CHANGES MADE TO MATHOMATIC V14.5.1:
7/15/09 - Rationalizing the denominator of algebraic fractions was sometimes complicating
expressions instead of rationalizing; affects full simplification. Fixed.
7/16/09 - Parenthesize displayed negative numbers when "set no negate_highest_precedence"
to get signs right when interpreting.
7/18/09 - Allow optimize command in symbolic math library.
Mathomatic version 14.5.2 released Saturday 07/18/09.
CHANGES MADE TO MATHOMATIC V14.5.2:
Minor corrections to the code and documentation.
7/22/09 - Allow setting the enforced security level for the Mathomatic session with "-s" option.
Level 0 is the default with no security, level 1 disables shelling out,
level 2 disables shelling out and writing files,
level 3 is complete security with no file reading either.
8/4/09 - The HANDHELD compile-time define was corrected to give a reasonable default expression array size;
it was way too small before, therefore not working on medium-sized and large expressions.
8/7/09 - Added "set rationalize_denominators" option, which attempts to move radicals from the denominator
of fractions to the numerator during simplification. This is still the default.
Mathomatic version 14.5.3 released Friday 08/07/09.
