Matrices are part of linear algebra. It was developed for students to learn algoritms and test own calculation. Therefore tkmatrix can give not even a solution but all algorithm steps as a protocol. It can calculate with floatnumbers (and multiple precision float) and fractions. Solutions and protocols can be exported to ascii, html and latex files. (other files are possible). The math-part of tkmatrix is programmed in C++ as tcl-library and graphical interface in Tk/Tcl. The distribution includes the program matrix too. It is pure shellprogram tkmatrix without GUI. 2. Compile and Install -compile configuration old linux STL Library use string::erase not string::remove. If your Library (RedHat<5.1) know string::remove you must edit makefile and uncommnet one line -to compile change in tkmatrix-0.6 directory and do make -Installation You can use the program without full install (when you have no root). To run start tkmatrix.tcl. The program expect wish in /usr/lib/wish To full install do make install it copy all necessary files in /usr/lib/tkmatrix and make 2 symbolic links in /usr/bin. Documentation in dir docu will be not copied. 3 Other Documentation Full documentation is available only in german language docus/matrix.html english short-version is docus/tkmatrix_en.html mathematical short documentation in English :mathe_en.pdf Acrobat Reader File :mathe_en.tex Latex File :mathe1.pdf mathe1.ps full mathematical documentation in German 4 tkmatrix Homepage, Author and License English tkmatrix Homepage http://www.xdobry.de/tkmatrix/tkmatix_en.html German Pages http://www.xdobry.de/tkmatrix tkmatrix was written by Artur Trzewik tkmatrix is free software.
