A Full-Featured System for Numerical Analysis and Reporting

Overview:
The AnalytiCalc system from General Cybernetic Engineering includes a
full featured spreadsheet, graphics programs, documents, and facilities
for performing many commonly needed functions. Database data extraction
and word processing integration are built in. A scheduling program is
also furnished for calendar, meeting scheduling, and similar functions.

Features include:

* 18000 by 18000 cell spreadsheet size using virtual memory so that the
	ENTIRE sheet can be used. Total storage can be as much as 6 times
	greater than possible using popular programs such as 1-2-3 on a
	memory-loaded PC. The 256K version gives full capacity. Over
	2 megabytes of virtual storage is available and no penalty for
	using cells other than in the upper left corner of the address
	space exists.
* Full random access to other saved spreadsheet formulas or values from any
	cells.
* Easy save or merge of partial sheets with the most flexible cell addressing
	in the industry.
* As many windows on screen as you like. Up to 400 can be handled on screen,
	and more on printouts. You're not limited to 2, 4, or 8 regions
	as you are in some programs.
* Ability to drive any cell from external macros, or to drive the entire
	sheet from other external macros.
* Functions provided for extracting data by keys from data files on the system, 
	or for reading in normal ASCII files and automatically breaking them
	up for easy calculation.
* Automatic "audit" display available to allow you to see exactly how the
	formulas on your spreadsheet are related. Can be printed out in this
	format also.
* Built in matrix algebra, random number generation, date arithmetic and
	conversions between all necessary date formats.
* Ability built in to vary up to 8 parameters automatically to solve systems
	of equations. Used with cell programs and/or matrix algebra routines,
	this gives mathematical power unparalleled in machines of the PC
	class.
* Full selection of scientific, engineering, logical, business, and arithmetic
	functions. Up to 109 characters of formula per cell, which may contain
	multiple equations. (One AnalytiCalc cell can frequently do the work
	of several cells in other programs.)
* Table addressing functions and lookup functions useful for multi dimensional
	access around the sheet.
* Conditionals, display sorting, access to formulas (rather than values) for
	sorts, dynamic modifications of formulas where desired.
* Recursive macro substitution capability for simple re-use of complex parts of
	formulas. In 320K version, this may be done by name; in 256K version,
	by address.
* 60 scratch accumulators global to the sheet.
* Graph outputs and Word Processing documents may be overlayed onto sheet,
	included within it, or even nested as frames under control of the
	AnalytiCalc program. One and two dimensional plots and piechart
	programs are provided.
* Mechanism for executing any DOS commands from within AnalytiCalc without
	losing context. May be driven by macros (command files) anywhere
	they are legal.
* Can be run from auxiliary terminal if desired; ANSI cursor controls on the
	auxiliary terminal are all that is required.
* Uses 8087 for faster calculations if available. Understands full PCDOS 2.0
	path filename syntax.
* Large help system permitting online discovery of most command formats. Full
	manual available online with search utility to facilitate locating
	critical information quickly. F1 used as help key (as is common in many
	DOS programs). User may expand command set using supplied files.
* Deliberately NOT copy-protected to simplify user backup, use from memory
	disks or hard disks. (We object to programs that make it hard for you
	to use them.)
* Runs on most any MSDOS machine if sufficient usable memory exists.
* Quick graphics command allows you to generate one or two dimensional
	plots from a single keystroke.
* Graphics utilities generate histograms, scatterplots, piecharts, line
	graphs, linear regressions, and more. Output for histograms and
	scatterplots may go to ANY MSDOS device or file.

	The AnalytiCalc system is priced, not at $500.00, but at $49.
	because we believe that good software should be inexpensive so that
	it will be widely available and used. We prefer to make a small profit
	on each sale rather than try to impoverish a smaller number of users
	by charging a larger price. We believe the $500 packages are over
	priced; try this one and see if you don't agree.
