If you are not doing symbolic math in Mathcad, it becomes pointless. In solving engineering problems we come across a computation like the above problem but we have to solve the same problem for n number of sections where excel beats Mathcad in terms of presentation in form of tables. Just not satisfied with the progress of Mathcad in Civil Engineering. Mathcad needs to get close to mathematica or matlab to remain competitive in the market.
