Version History of AutoMathic

2.4

October 3, 2024

New vocabulary recognizing "square", "squared", "cubic", and "cubed" (and abbreviations "sq", "sqr", "sqrd", "cu", and "cbd") as possible leading words for a small set of macroscopic length units, allowing prefixed forms of some common multi-dimensional spatial units: - Length units recognized with prefixes are: inches, feet, yards, miles, nautical miles, millimeters, centimeters, meters, and kilometers (in all their singular, plural, and abbreviated forms) e.g. "3,200[square feet]", "16[squared miles]" e.g. "5x7 [sq in]", "12[sqr km]" e.g. "6[cubic yards]", "1[cubed meter]" e.g. "350[cu in]", "23[cu ft]" New vocabulary recognizing the split versions of many existing compound vocabulary words (including singular, plural, and abbreviated forms): - arc minute, arc second, bi annually, bi monthly, bi yearly, bi weekly, delta t, long word, over tone, semi annually, semi monthly, semi weekly, semi yearly, table spoon, tea spoon, wave length New vocabulary recognizing compound (and alternate) versions of some two-word idioms in the existing vocabulary: - absolute0, abs0, abs zero, abs 0, - degreeC, degreeF, degreeK, degreesC, degreesF, degreesK - degC, degF, degK, degsC, degsF, degsK, deg'sC, deg'sF, deg'sK Cycle through various default font sizes for the output window with a "long press" (i.e. press-and-hold) on the Paper-selection button! (This replaces the rarely-needed bold font toggle feature introduced in version 1.1) Enabled Pinch-to-Zoom for the iPhone on all "View File" screens! Dark (and Tinted) app icon support for iOS and iPadOS 18! Fixes: - Fix for iOS and iPadOS 18 crash after dismissing alert messages! - Fixes, code cleanups, and minor graphical tweaks for macOS (on Apple silicon) and visionOS compatibility! - Documentation updates and cleanups

2.3.1

November 28, 2021

Optimized the indirect-solution strategies to avoid useless hypothetical assignments to variables, such as those that have been simplified out of equations! - e.g. The useless hypothetical value for "s" in "How many [feet/(second^2)] is 5.5 Gee?" which simplifies from "nss/f=5.5(9.8)ss/m" to "n/f=5.5(9.8)/m" Improved the readability of natural-language-based answer displays by removing some unnecessary spacing (added during the parsing phase) around math symbols! Enabled Pinch-to-Zoom for the iPad on Help and "View File" screens! New vocabulary for (singular and plural forms of) "fraction words" written as numbers: - 3rd, 3rds, 4th, 4ths, ..., 20ths, 30ths, ..., 100ths, 1,000ths, etc. Standardized the usage and translation of "micron" to the official SI unit "micrometer"... This can streamline problem-solving by defining the equivalence of those terms through a direct, vocabulary-level translation instead of using an indirect, equation-level mathematical fact. Fixes: - iPadOS 15+ bug fix for the input line, Command-mode buttons, or bottom bar being hidden after showing the iPad keyboard for dialog box input, but only if the iPad's Keyboard Shortcuts setting (Settings --> General --> Keyboard --> Shortcuts) was on! This could happen after: - "Load Algebra" scripted calculations (or any use of the "input" command) - "Save Transcript" and "Save Algebra" filename prompts - Standardized the translation of "ft" (and the irregular plural "feet") to the singular "foot", matching the singular-form translation convention used for all other N-dimensional unit abbreviations and variations (e.g. "ft2", "feet2", "ft3", "feet3", etc.)... This fix helps avoid dead ends (and can streamline problem solving) by allowing more immediate symbolic simplification involving units of feet! - Documentation updates and cleanups

November 12, 2020

New vocabulary, knowledge, and strategies for enhanced support of multi-dimensional units: - "squared" (and abbreviations) and "^2" as non-numeric symbol suffixes, primarily for 2-dimensional units (e.g. "[ft squared]", "[meters sq]", "[m^2]") - Vocabulary words for common macroscopic units with "2" appended as a shorthand for "squared" (e.g. "ft2") - "cubed" (and abbreviation "cbd") and "^3" as non-numeric symbol suffixes, primarily for 3-dimensional units (e.g. "[ft cubed]", "[meters cbd]", "[ft^3]") - Vocabulary words for common macroscopic units with "3" appended as a shorthand for "cubed" (e.g. "ft3") - Knowledgebase additions formally unifying its previously-separate concepts of volume (in bulk) and length (in 3 dimensions) (e.g. "Convert 15[ft] x 10[m] x 50[in] to unit gallons.") - KnowledgeBase and vocabulary additions for some 2-dimensional units of area (e.g. "acres", "hectares", "sections") - A new indirect-solution strategy that tries to avoid situations that might lead to solving equations for non-linear variables (such as multi-dimensional units) - In-app examples in Help -> Examples and in File -> View File -> eg_MultiDimensionalUnits.htm Basic support for "in" as an abbreviation for "inch" (and "has" as an abbreviation for "hectares") when used in the context of a unit New vocabulary for understanding some unusual, but valid, musical note terms: - "C flat", "Cb", and "C b" as synonyms for "B natural" - "F flat", "Fb", and "F b" as synonyms for "E natural" - "E sharp", "E#", and "E #" as synonyms for "F natural" - "B sharp", "B#", and "B #" as synonyms for "C natural" Added a height length calculation to the Circle equation file! Added more "common derivations" to the BasicProbability equation file! Tweaked some equation files with minor aesthetic improvements: - ArithmeticSequence.eqn - AstronomicalUnits.eqn - BasicProbability.eqn - Circle.eqn - RightTriangle.eqn Fixes: - Documentation fixes for invalid Unit Conversion examples using "converts to" - Code cleanups

2.2

May 23, 2020

Natural language parser enhancements and bug fixes: - Now understands more complex "percent difference" statements (i.e. "_X_ percent more than _Y_" or "_X_ percent less than _Y_") where the second element "Y" can now be arbitrarily complex, instead of just a number or very simple noun! e.g. "What percent more than 7[lb/gal] is the density of water?" e.g. "What's 13% faster than the speed of sound measured in mph?" e.g. "What percent less than 100 unit meters is 60 unit yards?" e.g. "Find 7.5 pct under the sum of 3.2 and 2.7 and 5.6." - Now understands "a percent" (in any of its variations) as 1%. e.g. "How much of a percent of the GDP is ten billion?" e.g. "A pct more than 1,234,567" e.g. "217 is a % less than what?" e.g. "3.1 is a% of half the total" Fixes: - Bug fix for some incorrect interpretation of simple subtraction as "percent less than" calculations! e.g. "7% minus 0.03" - Bug fix for not treating the "%" sign like all other math symbols, causing it to be misinterpreted or unrecognized when not followed by a space! e.g. "13%/2" e.g. "What%=3/5?"   - Bug fixes for some incorrect parsing of the word "of", often following a user-entered fraction with a numeric denominator! e.g. "1/5 of 20" - Code cleanups

Price History of AutoMathic

Description of AutoMathic

AutoMathic is a different kind of calculator, smart enough to help you solve math problems by automating as much of the work as you want. With AutoMathic, you focus on specifying the problem, and let the computer do the mechanical work of solving it! If your current calculator can't directly solve for input like this, you need AutoMathic: "How many millions is 12% of 275 million?" "What must the price have been assuming that tips were 2.75?" "21 is the difference between what circumference and what radius?" "How many times 2.4[mHz] is 3.1[gHz]?" "Find the cost daily when the cost semiannually is 475." "3[drops/sec] converts to how many [gallons/day]?" "If the average speed is 50[mph], and the radius is 50[m], how many G's would the centripetal acceleration be?" "If the wave speed is the speed of sound, and the frequency is F#, how many unit inches long is the wavelength?" "How many trillionths of a unit Coulomb is the charge when the capacitance is 53[pF], and the voltage is 12[V]?" "If the power is 40[W], and the voltage is 12[V], find the resistance measured in ohms, and the current measured in amps." "Find the mass per particle measured in AMU when the mass for 6 moles is 84[gm]." "If the formula weight is 106, find the number of grams such that the molar concentration is 4 when the number of ml is 1,500." "If the density is half the density of steel, and 75% of the volume is 2[gal], find the mass measured in pounds." "If the specific gravity is 0.668, find the density measured in lb/gal." "Find the number of nucleons, and the atomic weight. The atomic number is 6, the ratio of protons to neutrons is 1:1, and the ionic charge is +2." "Compute the volume measured in liters if the number of moles is 1, pressure is standard pressure, and temperature is standard temperature." "Find the heat energy measured in Joules given that the mass is 7.05[gm], deltaT is 75, and the specific heat is the specific heat of iron." AutoMathic is great for: - Math and Science Students - Teachers and Tutors - Scientists and Engineers - "Everyday" math - "Off-the-cuff" calculations - Anyone who's naturally curious or likes to play with numbers! Calculate *your* way, with 3 complementary modes of operation: 1. AutoMathic lets you run scripted calculations from a large, built-in library if you want to do something commonplace. 2. AutoMathic lets you do manual calculations by accepting expressions and equations you enter yourself, and gives you the tools to manipulate them using familiar techniques from algebra. 3. AutoMathic lets you do free-form calculations by automatically translating your English-like, conversational input into variables, expressions, and equations to be solved... and then it solves them! You tell it what you know, and ask it what you want to find out! Most calculators are just "calculators", not problem-solvers... AutoMathic is different: - Instead of a one-line, numeric display, its output scrolls indefinitely, showing variables, expressions, and equations that are formatted and easy to read! - Instead of passively waiting for directions, it automates most of the process (even when in the hands-on "Command" mode), but has customizable level-of-detail settings that can show and explain every step of the way! - Instead of rigid equation libraries, it has a collection of task-oriented workflows that conform to how you want to use them. They don't even distinguish between "input" and "output" variables! - Instead of requiring "programming" with a low-level programming language, it lets you create, use, save, and later reuse your own equations just like the built-in equation libraries! - AutoMathic offers a high-level, "natural-language" interface that accepts free-form, conversational input and automatically pulls in whatever background information is needed at the time from a broad, built-in knowledgebase! - Transcripts can be saved to record and document the entire session!

Leave a Review AutoMathic
  • Not impressed

    I bought it thinking this might be a decent app, but I find it’s having difficulty getting it’s own examples correct. It gets some right, but not many.
  • Thank you!

    I appreciate the hard work! I love this program!
  • I like the concept

    I like what they are trying to do but they have a lot of refinement to do still. It frequently tries to make a single variable of out two words. Not being able to interact with the page using only the "single" input line is a big draw back for using this app. I would prefer "UnitMath" if it wasn't ad suported.
