Scientific center for Windows puts more than 1600 math/science formulas at the ready.IRVINE, Calif.--(BUSINESS WIRE)-- September 19, 1995-- InfiniText Inc. of Irvine, Calif., Tuesday introduced a $39.95 (suggested retail price) software program that gives engineers, scientists, programmers, technical staff and college and high school students instant access to more than 1600 mathematical formulas, a full-featured scientific calculator and other science tools. Scientific Center for Windows is a "point and click" reference designed to save time, space and money for those who are accustomed to thumbing through thick reference books or relying on an assortment of paper or plastic guides, according to according to prep. 1. As stated or indicated by; on the authority of: according to historians. 2. In keeping with: according to instructions. 3. Dr. Michael Fleisher, president and co-founder. He came up with the idea for an automated reference program while in a local bookstore, where he could only find plastic guides. The software, with a built-in conversion program (length, area, volume, energy, etc.) and link to a scientific calculator, also offers illustrations, a "personal page" that can be edited and "printed," an on-screen on·screen or on-screen adj. & adv. 1. As shown on a movie, television, or display screen. 2. Within public view; in public. user's manual and a chemical Periodic Table. Among the subjects covered by the program include algebra, trigonometry trigonometry [Gr.,=measurement of triangles], a specialized area of geometry concerned with the properties of and relations among the parts of a triangle. Spherical trigonometry is concerned with the study of triangles on the surface of a sphere rather than in the , analytic geometry, probability and statistics See the separate articles on probability or the article on statistics. Statistical analysis depends on the characteristics of particular probability distributions, and the two topics are normally studied together. , statistical process control (SPC 1. (business) SPC - Statistical Process Control. Something to do with quality management. 2. (body) SPC - Software Productivity Centre. 3. (company) SPC - Software Publishing Corporation. 4. ), integrals, differentiation, series, constants, vector analysis, differential equations and hyperbolic functions. A full ASCII table also is included. "This program is a must for users of Mathematica, Matlab, Statistica/W, Statgraphics Plus and similar software packages, and it is especially valuable to laptop or notebook PC users who need to perform math functions in the field or while travelling," Fleisher added. Other features of the program, now available directly from InfiniText, include a scientific and standard calculator, compatibility with portable computers and complete modularity for adding future software packages as they become available. "We use it on a regular basis -- it is wonderful," says Mike Sullivan, owner of M.C.S. Electronics in Temecula, Calif. "It sure beats the old way -- digging up formulas out of old books." System requirements for Scientific Center for Windows are a PC 386 or higher, Windows 3.1, Windows NT and Windows 95, and at least 3 MG of free hard disk space. The program, in 3.5-inch floppy disk format Floppy disk format and density refer to the logical and physical layout of data stored on a floppy disk. Since their introduction, there have been many popular and rare floppy disk types, densities, and formats used in computing, leading to much confusion over their , occupies 3MB of storage space and uses advanced data compression and "real-time decompression."
