Description

MuPAD 1.2.9 is the official beta release of MuPAD 1.3, that was called the "developer version" of MuPAD. The bug fixed release 1.2.9a was installed on 02.Oct.96.

Moreover, MuPAD for Windows 95/NT-4.0, version 1.2.9, the first beta release of the MuPAD environment for Windows 95, will be published.

The developments mainly concern improvements of the mathematical library and their packages. Almost all developments (and the developments for the kernel) of MuPAD 1.2.9 do not influence the use of the system with respect to MuPAD 1.2.2. New functions were written for packages and are described in documents that are not part of the MuPAD User's Manual. They can be found as additional on-line documents for the MuPAD help tool.

The MuPAD User's Manual is the up-to-date documentation of MuPAD 1.2.9!

We refer the reader to the page Demos and Examples for further information regarding the developments of MuPAD 1.2.9.
