AI Thread Summary
MATLAB is widely recommended for programming and solving equation problems due to its robust capabilities. Mathematica is noted as a useful GUI option for equation solving, though it may not be as flexible as MATLAB. The choice of programming language can depend on the specific types of problems being addressed. Familiarity with these tools can influence their effectiveness for users. Understanding the nature of the equations involved is crucial for selecting the appropriate software.

Depends on what you are doing, but MATLAB is commonly used for programming and equation problems. Mathematic is more of a GUI for solving equations, but may be useful for you as well. Are you familiar with these packages? What kind of problems do you intend to use the software on?
 
Thread 'Have I solved this structural engineering equation correctly?'
Hi all, I have a structural engineering book from 1979. I am trying to follow it as best as I can. I have come to a formula that calculates the rotations in radians at the rigid joint that requires an iterative procedure. This equation comes in the form of: $$ x_i = \frac {Q_ih_i + Q_{i+1}h_{i+1}}{4K} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i-1} + \frac {C}{K}x_{i+1} $$ Where: ## Q ## is the horizontal storey shear ## h ## is the storey height ## K = (6G_i + C_i + C_{i+1}) ## ## G = \frac {I_g}{h} ## ## C...
