Embracing our vision, we offer a vibrant, free version of our user-friendly Math Solver.

The PolymathPlus solver is available as a web application or a Windows desktop application. A link to the online solver becomes visible on the left menubar after login. We are encouraging users to switch to the online version while keeping support for the Windows desktop application for paid licenses.

Our internal algorithms have been extensively used over the years by many engineering faculties in universities across the world. Students and professionals will appreciate the ease of use and the comprehensive solution reports of our application.

News

Version 7.0.46 (from Feb 14, 2024) has the following key changes:
✅ The student license has been upgraded to support up to 50 explicit auxiliary equations
✅ Support for a very large number of ODEs (over 1,000) for professional licenses
✅ A new numerical integration method for experimental data points has been introduced

Modules

Linear Equations

PolymathPlus can solve linear equations of any size. The number of equations should be equal to the number of unknown linear variables. Here's an example of 3 linear equations to be solved simultaneously:

Below are the equations entered into the PolymathPlus problem input text box (note that the # sign indicates user remarks and is being ignored by the program):

# linear equations a + 2*c = 50 b = -2 + c a + 23*c = 12 + b

Nonlinear Equations

When solving simultaneous nonlinear equations, the equations have to be written as root expressions (expressions that are equal to zero in the solution). In addition, an initial guess should be provided for each nonlinear variable.
Below is a sample problem and data entry for solving 2 nonlinear equations:

When entering the problem into PolymathPlus, we should enter the root expressions, each associated to a nonlinear variable function. We should also provide an initial estimate for each nonlinear variable. In the example below, we have 2 nonlinear variables x and y, hence 2 root functions, and we provide an initial guess of 1 for both x, and y.

f(x) = x^2 + y - 12 f(y) = 2*x + log(y+2) - 5 x(0)=1 y(0)=1

Note that we may also define any number of auxiliary expressions, to simplify long expressions, in this example we define a as an auxiliary expression:

f(x) = x^2 + y - 12 f(y) = 2*x + a a = log(y+2) - 5 x(0)=1 y(0)=1

In case we only have one nonlinear equation to solve (with any number of auxiliary expressions), we need to provide a min/max estimates for the nonlinear variable. For example, below is a PolymathPlus program for solving one nonlinear equation where we need to evaluate V:

f(V) = (P+a/(V^2))*(V-b)-R*T P=56 R=0.08206 T=450 Tc=405.5 Pc=111.3 Pr=P/Pc a=27*(R^2*Tc^2/Pc)/64 b=R*Tc/(8*Pc) Z=P*V/(R*T) V(min)=0.4 V(max)=1

Differential Equations

Entering and solving ordinary differential equations with PolymatPlus is simple.
Consider this set of equations to be solved:

ode1.png

Given the initial conditions x0=1, y0=4, at t0=0, and having the integration finish at tf=1,
the text below should be entered into PolymathPlus:

x' = x + 4*t^2 y' = sqrt(y) - x/(5-y) x|1 y|4 t|0:1

The following alternative compatible syntax can also be used for the same problem:

d(x)/d(t) = x + 4*t^2 d(y)/d(t) = sqrt(y) - x/(5-y) x(0)=1 y(0)=4 t(0)=0 t(f)=1

The solution will be displayed in a tabular format and will also include the integration chart:

Curve Fitting

PolymathPlus supports curve fitting for polynomial, multi-linear, and nonlinear regression. The report evaluates the model variables, generates a regression chart, residual plots, and provides statistics on the accuracy of the model.

polyfit <x> <y> <order> [origin]

PolymathPlus Syntax Fit Description Curve to Fit
polyfit x y 1 Linear regression y = a0 + a1x
polyfit x y 1 origin Linear regression via origin y = a1x
polyfit x y 2 Polynomial regression 2nd order y = a0 + a1x + a2x2

Here is an example of the data entry required for solving a linear regression model for a given set of data points.
We solve a polynomial regression model with the order of 1 (hence linear regression) which best fits the linear equation matching the given data points.

# Linear regression example # Straight line fit for BOD vs Time data [ t BOD 1 0.6 2 0.7 4 1.5 6 1.9 8 2.1 10 2.6 12 2.9 14 3.7 16 3.5 18 3.7 20 3.8 ] Time = t + 10 polyfit Time BOD 1

Below is an example of a data entry for solving nonlinear regression model for a given set of data points. The model variables to be found are a and b, for which we should also provide an initial guess.

# Example: Nonlinear Regression [ x y g 0.5 1.255 1.2 0.387 1.25 1.3 0.24 1.189 1.4 0.136 1.124 2.0 0.04 0.783 2.1 0.011 0.402 2.2 ] # Nonlinear regression model nlinfit y = a * x / (b + x) # Initial guess of the # regression model variables a,b m(a)= 2 m(b)= 1

Program Settings and Hints

PolymathPlus enables users to customize the format of solution reports and the selection of algorithms using hints. These hints are stored within the PolymathPlus program file and are prefixed with #@.

The sample program below includes several hint lines, used to modify the number of digits displayed in the report, adjust the size and content of the chart, and display a table of intermediate data points in the solution report.

# Example ODE System solution with custom # hints for the solution report format #@Report_fix_digits = 12 #@Chart_Size = 400; 250 #@Chart_Y_Curves = T2 T3 #@Report_Show_Intermediate_data_points = yes #@DEQ_Intermediate_data_points = 30 #@Report_show_Settings = yes d(T1)/d(t)=(W*Cp*(T0-T1)+UA*(Tsteam-T1))/(M*Cp) d(T2)/d(t)=(W*Cp*(T1-T2)+UA*(Tsteam-T2))/(M*Cp) d(T3)/d(t)=(W*Cp*(T2-T3)+UA*(Tsteam-T3))/(M*Cp) W=100 Cp=2.0 T0=20 UA=10.

Online and Desktop Programs

The online version of PolymathPlus has several advantages over the traditional desktop version. We advocate using it for the following reasons:

  • Accessibility: The online version allows users to access the software from any device with internet connectivity, eliminating the need for software installations and updates.
  • Cross-Platform Compatibility: Our online version is compatible with various operating systems and devices, i.e. Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, and iOS, providing users a seamless experience across platforms.
  • Collaboration and Sharing: With the online version, users can easily collaborate with peers, share calculations, and work on projects collectively. This fosters a sense of community and encourages knowledge exchange among users.

Development of the desktop version will be slowed down until we secure adequate funds to align it with our online version.
