Tocomplete this tutorial you will need access to a copy of the Mathcad program. This tutorial was created using version 15 and therefore these instructions will work best with version 15; however, it is possible to use other versions of the program with this tutorial.

Caution: It is imperative to put equations, such as the force equation we just made, beneath the variables contained within the equation. Mathcad reads information just like you and I, left to right, top to bottom. Therefore, it is important that Mathcad know the values of the variables in equations before it tries to solve those equations.


Note: Note how the force value changes from 98 N to 2 x 10^3 N automatically. This makes Mathcad extremely powerful in that complex computations can be setup once and repeated for different values by simply changing the variables in question.


Note: The equation for force is now acting as a variable in the equation for work; force is acting as both an input and an output of the program. Again, this enables users to simply adjust the values of changing variables and have the changes take effect throughout the entire document, through the use of cascading computations.


Now that you have created your first Mathcad document you should be able to solve any basic math problem using Mathcad. You also now have a base of knowledge, giving you the ability to further explore the program. As you explore, and your capabilities grow, you will become an experienced and competent Mathcad user. You will also begin to see more and more applications for the Mathcad program, which will only give you more experience. Who knows, maybe you could be the one writing a Mathcad tutorial someday!


I am working through this tutorial (from this site), using Mathcad Prime 3.0, F000 The thing that is driving me absolutely crazy is tha tI can't get it to solve symbolically, like the tutorial says it should.


The reason for your problem is, that the tutorial you are working through is a very old one written for older (and better) versions of Mathcad. In those versions we had a feature called static symbolics and this would not consider any values assigned to the variables in play and returns a result in a separate region as indiceated in the sheet.


Prime is a mediocre version, slow, uncomfortable and missing a lot of features. Static symbolics is not available in Prime anymore and while I continue using Mathcad 15 to be honest, I won't miss static symbolics.


PTC tries to offer material for Prime to push it but they don't have much material for that version as most longterm users would rather stick to Mathcad 15. So they took those very old tutorials and converted them to Prime format without much thinking and editing - obviously a low budget production. The really did a poor job (as they also did in creating Prime) and you will find a lot of that kind of errors and inconsistencies when you work through those sheets. But if you know about the problem you may benefit from dealing with those files anyway. You may have noticed that throughout the sheet you are told to type v2.f which is wrong. The period is the way to create a literal subscript in Mathcad 15 and below. in Prime it is v2ctrl+-f


If you need a symbolic one, you may hide the values from the symbolics. You do this using the clear.sym statement. You also don't need to copy an expression to assign v2.f a value as written in the sheet but can do it in one step and later display v2.f in any unit you like.


I don't think that its possible to hide the multiplication dots in symbolic results. Its only in expressions you type in yourself and in numeric results where you have this choice about the display of the multiplication with its six options from various different sized dots and spaces and the x. I am talking about (real) Mathcad, in Prime you don't have any choice whatsoever.


In 2006, the Parametric Technology Corporation (PTC) acquired MathSoft. The following year PTC released Mathcad 14.0, which offered several significant enhancements. Mathcad 15.0, released in 2010, also provided many improved and updated functions. After Mathcad 15.0, PTC decided to go in an entirely new direction with Mathcad Prime 1.0 (2011) and Mathcad Prime 2.0 (2012). Some of the new features include new Prime User Interface (UI) with snap-to-grid workspace, multiple document interface, new ribbon menus and status bars, new matrix navigation/view, plots and matrices support units, and new label styles.



Worksheets from earlier versions of Mathcad cannot be opened directly into Mathcad Prime 2.0. Instead PTC provides an XMCD, MCD Converter that can run in batch mode to convert many files at once or to convert an individual worksheet. If you want to convert worksheets from previous versions of Mathcad, you need to have a copy of PTC Mathcad 15. The converter requires Mathcad 15.0 to be installed so that you can convert any worksheets from past versions of Mathcad.


Mathcad provides a rich problem-solving environment that gives you a wide variety of analysis and visualization tools. Unlike other technical software, Mathcad does math the same way you do. That is because it looks and works like a scratchpad and pencil. Mathcad's on-screen interface is a blank worksheet on which you can enter equations, graph data or functions, and annotate with text - anywhere on the worksheet. Some of the important computational features of Mathcad for engineering applications are:


Mathematical expressions in Mathcad look the way you would see them in a textbook or a reference book. The only difference is that Mathcad's equations and graphs are live, which means Mathcad recalculates the math and redraws the graphs every time you change any data, variable, or equation in a worksheet.

To learn the basic features of Mathcad Prime, you need to have at least a copy of Mathcad Prime Express, which is free and available from PTC website. Once you install the software, you need to study the Mathcad Prime's built-in tutorial. In particular, you need to learn how to


This document provides a tutorial on using programming capabilities in Mathcad Prime. It discusses two ways programming can be used: 1) to formalize mathematical relationships through functions, using examples of circumference and area of a circle, and 2) to model mathematical processes through iteration, using an example of calculating the average of a list of numbers. Instructions are given to write programs for calculating circumference, area, and average. The programming tools introduced are local assignment operators and program structures.Read less
