Product Description
Teaches new Mathematica users some of the important basics of this powerful software tool: defining functions, creating graphs and Notebooks, and applying useful problem-solving techniques. The authors cover 40 functions and use clear language and concise instructions to help readers master the basics.
Customer Reviews & Comments Helpful, at first, and authors intimately knowledgeable in Mathematica. However they could not have verified that all their examples actually work in practice e.g. page 179 rel. plotting normal probability distribution. The Mathematica website leads to numerous references to the problem underlying this coding error. This is frustrating for a beginner.
