Calcpad version 5.8.4

[Proektsoftbg]

New in version 5.8.4:

1. A new numerical method was added: $Integrate. It performs numerical integration by Tanh-Sinh quadrature. It is much faster than the Adaptive Lobatto quadrature ($Area), but works only for continuous and smooth functioins.

2. Formatting for $Integrate, $Sum and $Product was greatly improved:

This applies also for MS Word and pdf export.

3. Adaptive Lobatto integration performance was improved.
4. Missing value tooltips for variables were fixed.
5. Skipping of blank lines on file open was also fixed.
6. Documentation was updated with better explanation for root finding and integration.
7. Replacing of == with ≡ in comments on file open was fixed.

Wow, I wanted to write about displaying limits in Σ today, but it's already complete!

Just amazing! Congratulations for the great work!

Thank you for the update!

Just noticed, when clicking on the "$Integral..." in the help section it copies "$Area..." instead.

Aha! OK, Thank you! I will fix it.

I fixed this, but to take effect, you need to uninstall the current version and then, download and re-install it again.

Hi!
I enhanced the adaptive Lobatto ($Area) procedure and updated the last release. Now it is much faster (about twice) almost without affecting precision.
