Gotow.net has launched Mathomatic, a symbolic math calculator for the iPhone. Mathomatic goes beyond regular calculation to solving algebraic problems, ranging from basic algebra to complex polynomial and multivariate systems. It works through systems of equations, showing intermediate steps and all possible solutions, while simplifying and factoring expressions. Mathomatic works with derivatives, indefinite integrals, laplace transforms and taylor series expansions, as well as imaginary numbers.

The app supports scrolling for entering and viewing long expressions, and displays the expressions in a 2D format. The application does not handle functions like sine and cosine, but does support log functions. Mathomatic is compatible with both the iPhone and iPod touch, so long as either has v2.2 firmware. It costs $2 and is being sold through the App Store.
