| '''LiveMath''' is a [[computer algebra system]] available on a number of platforms including [[Mac OS]], [[Mac OS X]] ([[Carbon (API)|Carbon]]), [[Microsoft Windows]], [[Linux]] (x86) and [[Solaris (operating system)|Solaris]] (SPARC). It is the latest release of a system that originally emerged as '''Theorist''' for the "classic" Mac in 1989, became '''MathView''' and '''MathPlus''' in 1997 after it was sold to [[Waterloo Maple]],<ref>[http://support.livemath.com/resources/oldnames/ A Brief History of LiveMath]</ref> and finally LiveMath after it was purchased by members of its own userbase in 1999.<ref>[http://www.maplesoft.com/view.aspx?sf=68/1999-06-09.pdf Waterloo Maple sells MathView & Expressionist Product Line to WebPrimitives, LLC of Cambridge, Massachusetts]</ref> The application is currently owned by '''MathMonkeys''' of [[Cambridge, MA]]. The overall LiveMath suite contains '''LiveMath Maker''', the main application, as well as '''LiveMath Viewer''' for end-users, and '''LiveMath Plug-In''', an [[ActiveX]] plugin for browsers.<ref>[http://www.livemath.com/products/ LiveMath Products]</ref>

| ==Description==
| |
| | |
| LiveMath uses a worksheet-based approach, similar to products like [[Mathematica]] or [[MathCAD]]. The user enters equations into the worksheet and then uses the built-in functions to help solve them, or reduce them numerically. Workbooks typically contain a number of equations separated into sections, along with data tables, graphs, and similar outputs. Unlike most CAS applications, LiveMath uses a full [[GUI]] with high-quality graphical representations of the equations at every step, including input.
| |
| | |
| LiveMath also allows the user to interact with the equation in the sheet; for instance, one can drag an instance of <math>x</math> to the left hand side of the equation, at which point LiveMath will re-arrange the equation to solve for <math>x</math>. LiveMath's algebraic solving systems are relatively simple compared to better known systems like Mathematica, and does not offer the same sort of automated single-step solving of these packages.
