Mathematica Navigator contains a great deal of material not easily found elsewhere in a well-organized form, with sufficient detail and illustrative examples. This book will serve excellently as a Mathematica handbook; it starts with the basics, goes carefully through the main material of Mathematica, and covers some advanced topics. Mathematica packages are integrated into the text, so that the reader gets a comprehensive overview of the features of Mathematica. This book allows a new user to begin working with Mathematica and proceed to quite a high level. Old users will find much new material, allowing them to raise their knowledge and skill to an even higher level. In addition, registered readers can send questions to the author concerning the use of Mathematica in areas treated in the book. * Gives a careful, overall introduction to Mathematica * Explores graphics in detail,both for functions and data * Covers procedural, functional, and rule-based programming * Presents useful standard Mathematica packages throughout the text * Emphasizes methods of applied mathematics and numerical analysis * CD-ROM contains the entire book, including all animations, and data sets presented in the book

Presents some common problems in mathematics and how they can be investigated using the Mathematica computer system. Problems and exercises include the calendar, sequences, the n-Queens problems, digital computing, blackjack and computing pi. This book is for those that would like to see how Mathematica is applied to real-world mathematics.

Focuses on mathematical understanding Presentation is self-contained, accessible, and comprehensive Full color throughout Extensive list of exercises and worked-out examples Many concrete algorithms with actual code

This introductory textbook adopts a practical and intuitive approach, rather than emphasizing mathematical rigor. Computationally oriented books in this area generally present algorithms alone, and expect readers to perform computations by hand, and are often written in traditional computer languages, such as Basic, Fortran or Pascal. This book, on the other hand, is the first text to use Mathematica to develop a thorough understanding of optimization algorithms, fully exploiting Mathematica's symbolic, numerical and graphic capabilities.
