Keeping up with its decade long tradition of
excellence, AS-EASY-AS version 5.7 introduces many new features
that once again set it apart from other spreadsheet programs. The
new version includes features geared towards engineering and
scientific analyses, as well as many general features to help you
make the most out of any application. When I first got a PC I
think this was the first DOS application I got as shareware, it
did the job back then as a spreadsheet and it does it today. This
is one shareware application that stays ahead of the competition,
even in the commercial software arena.
New features in this version include abilities to Integrate
complex functions, Calculate values of Bessel, Error, Beta and
Gamma functions, Perform recursive formula iterations, Calculate
Poisson and Gaussian distribution probabilities, Calculate
skewness and kurtosis values and more!
Linear programming optimization tools allow users to model
operations and calculate values of parameters to maximize
profits, or minimize costs. True linear programming
implementation and simple input requirements make models
adaptable to everyday real life situations.
True 3-Dimensional perspective graphics with 5 types of graphs
(Bars, Poles, Surface, Pyramids or XYZ) to create powerful
presentations of one's data. Dynamically reposition the user's
view by controlling the Roll, Yaw and Tilt angles...
Adding to the program's flexibility, the user is no longer
limited to the hundreds of the built-in functions. With the new
version the user may define up to 256 external functions, in a
simple text file, and then use them over and over again with any
worksheet! What's even better, such worksheets may be shared with
others, WITHOUT having to distribute the function definition
file! The user may define custom functions to handle financial,
scientific, business, or any other type of calculations!
Other Enhancements include Multivariate regression, Color
printing of graphs, ASCII delimited file output, File and Range
password protection, New macros for user input validation, User
definable format types, HPGL Output, VESA Graphics Support, and
more...
The program costs only $69 (+s&h), while upgrades from
earlier versions cost $19 (from v5.5) and $29 (from earlier
versions) +s&h. Check the order form in the shareware version
