Which software has been used for ?

1/- API 579 ( the part 2 with the examples) and

2/-ASME VIII ( he 3 booklets with the examples of division one and division 2)


was it simply a text editor ? and the calculations have been made behind the "curtens" ?
or is it a formal software dedicated to maths, etc

a/-I used to use Mathacad version 12 and 13 , 14 ..but mathcad is becoming cumbersome and is now PTC , not communicating with Mathcad previous versions which quite annoying !!

b/-Using excel/spreadsheets is handy, but one can not see the formula's and can not use the various symboles ( greek letters, math notation..) and one has to keep a good track of cells.

Please let me know if you have an idea

thanks a lot
take care
