What is Mathcad?
PTC Mathcad – Show your work!
Engineering calculations are essential for product design. To achieve excellence in engineering, you need a comprehensive yet intuitive application that performs accurate calculations, enables traceability, protects intellectual property and allows you to show your work.
Document your most critical engineering calculations in an engineering notebook with natural mathematical notation and units intelligence. Show your work using rich formatting options alongside plots, text, and images in a single, professionally formatted document.
Choose PTC Mathcad Prime because spreadsheets just can’t compete. Mathcad visually represents math in an intuitive way, making it easy to define, understand, and manipulate engineering calculations with the whiteboard-like user interface.
Mathcad’s approach to engineering calculations
Natural Math Notation
Access to math notations and symbols makes it easy to construct equations. Equations are entered as they appear in a reference book, with the ability to use English and Greek characters in standard math operations.
Units Intelligence
Mathcad allows you to automatically recognize and convert to “like” units, eliminating unit conversion and rounding errors. Automatic conversions between imperial and metric systems are possible, and you can define custom units for specific applications.
Higher Level Math
Mathcad provides more than 700 built-in mathematical functions for powerful numeric and symbolic math, allowing you to numerically solve algebra, geometry, trigonometry, calculus, differential equations, and more. Symbolic capabilities eliminate mistakes when performing hand calculations.
Documentation
Mathcad is more than just a calculator, but is an engineering notebook, allowing users to combine text. math, graphics, and annotations in a single worksheet.

What’s new in Mathcad Prime 8?
PTC has recently released Mathcad Prime 8 version so let’s take a look at the improvements.
Mathcad Application Updates
There are several updates to application-level functionality, which include important features requested by users.
- You can now set warnings for when either user- or system-defined identifiers such as variables, constants, and functions are redefined in your worksheet. This allows you to avoid unknowingly changing the definition of critical parameters.
- We have added a partial derivative operator in the Operators menu for you to use to define calculations that include partial derivatives.
- You can independently turn on the header, footer, or page view border with the new show frame functionality.
- And to enhance the usability of the combo-box input control added in the last release, in Prime 8, you can copy multiple values and paste them into the combo-box edit mode, making combo-box input control creation easier.
Symbolic and Numeric Engines Enhancements
There are many customer-driven enhancements to the symbolics engine in Mathcad Prime 8, as well as new functionality not seen in previous versions of Mathcad. On top of general keyword improvements, there has been significant improvement and expansion in use and performance for integral functions, such as Fourier, Laplace, and Ztrans and their inverses. Two new modifiers have been added to allow manipulation of the normalization and oscillatory factors for use with the Fourier keyword. Calculus operators such as Limits, Integrals, and Derivatives have been improved and cover expanded use cases. And there is now better auto-labelling of undefined variables in symbolic results.
Mathcad Usability Updates
- You can now see on a worksheet tab when a worksheet is unsaved and can close a worksheet directly from its tab.
- You can move worksheets to rearrange their order.
- Each tab now includes a right mouse button menu that provides access to useful actions, including calculate, move tab, copy full file path name, open containing folder, and close this or other tabs.
- And there are several smaller usability updates, like the new clear text format command and ctrl/wheel zoom.
