A near perfect introduction to Prime 3.0 from one civil engineer to another Fred E. Lusk III I am a civil engineer with 33 years of experience. I have used Mathcad since the first Windows version, which IIRC was v3.0. I had even tested the last DOS version just before the first Windows version hit the streets. I then made every upgrade up through Mathcad 8.0 Standard in 1998, but stopped upgrading after that due to cost, irregular and sometimes infrequent use, and the fact the Mathcad 8.0 Standard handled just about everything I needed Mathcad to handle.Unfortunately, while Mathcad 8.0 Standard ran fine for me under Windows Vista and Windows XP, it does not always play nice with Windows 7, so when Mathcad Prime 3.0 was release. A needed reference for the newer versions of MathCad EBC The author has provided a much needed reference for the newer versions of MathCad introduced since V15. A number of changes have been incorporated into this series that can complicate use: especially for those of us used to the older versions. The author has noted that some of these were difficult to get used to which, as a current user since about version 4, I agree with. MathCad is a powerful software app especially for those in many technical areas including new users. A side issue is that PTC's installation process has really proven to be a pain as compared to MathSoft who initially offered the software. Perfect introduction to Mathcad Prime Kyle Nguyen I'm an engineering student and I wanted to learn a computer software that could help me with calculations for a school project. For some reason I managed to hunker down and complete the whole book in about 2-3 days. This speaks to how readable (and fun!) this book is, helped by the fact that Mathcad is one of the most accessible math programs available. I'm glad I picked up Mathcad Prime instead of the regular Mathcad because, amongst other reasons, I love the different, and customizable, math labels in Prime. For example, I can set my variables to be red, functions green, and constants orange. This makes it easy to spot errors in Math
