Makes Teaching and Learning Mathematics Easier
Scientific Notebook Version 5 is ideal for reports, homework, and exams. With Scientific Notebook, creating attractive documents that contain text, mathematics, and graphics is seamless and easy. Version 5 adds RTF export, enabling you to share your work with colleagues or friends who do not have Scientific Notebook.

Quick, Clean, and Easy
The software is simple to use, yet powerful enough to facilitate teaching, communicating, learning, and exploring mathematics in the classroom. It is based on an easy-to-use word processor that completely integrates writing mathematics in natural notation.

Entering text and mathematics in Scientific Notebook is so straightforward there is practically no learning curve. Formatting is fast, simple, and consistent with tags that define the document structure and appearance.

The software comes with reference manuals and an extensive online help system for creating documents and doing mathematics.

The Power of Computer Algebra
Scientific Notebook is supplied with the built-in computer algebra engine MuPAD® 2.5. You can solve equations right in your documents with our easy-to-use interface.

You don't have to master complex syntax to be able to evaluate, simplify, solve, or plot mathematical expressions. Full computer algebra capabilities are available. You can compute symbolically or numerically, integrate, differentiate, and solve algebraic and differential equations. With menu commands, you can create 2-D and 3-D plots in many styles and coordinate systems; import data from graphing calculators; and compute with over 150 units of physical measure.

In addition, you can use the Exam Builder provided with Scientific Notebook to construct exams algorithmically and to generate, grade, and record quizzes on a web server.

Work with "Live" Mathematics Over the World Wide Web
If you have Internet access, you can open the file at any URL address from inside the software. With Scientific Notebook, you can send mathematical documents containing text, equations, and plots over the Internet. Scientific Viewer, our free web browser, makes the exchange of technical documents a breeze.

The software supports hypertext links, so you can facilitate navigation for your readers through a series of related documents. Readers can view and print documents using Scientific Viewer.
