To do any job in a most effective way one should choose the most appropriate
tools for that job.
For engineering and scientific calculations there exist several very
powerful tools:
Mathcad, Maple, Mathematica and some others.
So in practice there is no need to reinvent the wheel at all.
My favorite one is MathCad Professional. It can do almost everything
including powerful symbolic calculations (very powerful AI feature) and it's
own programming as well as visualisation of the results using OpenGL. There
are many additional specialized packages for it as well as electronic books.
It also allows you to add your own DLL libraries if you want to add
something that does not exist (very unlikely).
What is most important all your calculations are done in a "human" notation,
the same as you do it on the paper.
