Description:

'Mathematica®: A Problem-Centered Approach' introduces the vast array of features and powerful mathematical functions of Mathematica using a multitude of clearly presented examples and worked- out problems. Each section starts with a description of a new topic and some basic examples. The author then demonstrates the use of new commands through three categories of problems:- the first category highlights those essential parts of the text that demonstrate the use of new commands in Mathematica whilst solving each problem presented;- the second comprises problems that further demonstrate the use of commands previously introduced to tackle different situations; and- the third presents more…
