This book enables professionals to connect their knowledge of mathematics to either or both of the symbolic languages Maple and Mathematica.
The book begins by introducing the reader to symbolic computation and how it can be applied to solve a broad range of practical problems. Chapters cover topics that include: infinite series; complex numbers and functions; vectors and matrices; vector analysis; tensor analysis; ordinary differential equations; general vector spaces; Fourier series; partial differential equations; complex variable theory; and probability and statistics. Each important concept is clarified to students through the use of a simple example and often an illustration.
- Clarifies each important concept to students through the use of a simple example and often an illustration
- Provides quick-reference for students through multiple appendices, including an overview of terms in most commonly used applications (Mathematica, Maple)
- Shows how symbolic computing enables solving a broad range of practical problems
