Hands on Start to Wolfram/Alpha Notebook Edition

Author: Cliff Hastings
Publisher: Wolfram Media
ISBN: 9781579550394
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 280

Book Description
Wolfram ] Alpha Notebook Edition combines the simplicity of Wolfram ] Alpha with the computational capabilities of Mathematica for the best of both in a single, unified tool perfect for teaching and learning. Use free-form input to get instant answers to questions, create and customize graphs, and turn static examples into dynamic models. Everything is saved as an interactive Wolfram Notebook, so you can add notes and use notebooks as class or reference materials, or present them as dynamic slide shows that engage your audience as you edit examples on the fly. With this book, you'll learn how to]¬‚¬] Quickly create notebooks that combine calculations, graphics, interactive examples and notes. Enter free-form input and get solutions for a variety of calculations (e.g. arithmetic, algebra, calculus, linear algebra). Access step-by-step solutions, suggestions for next steps and related computations. Create 2D, 3D and interactive graphics with controls to dynamically change the parameters. Use previous results in future calculations, assign variables and define functions. Create dynamic slide show presentations with interactive elements that can be changed on the fly.

The Student's Introduction to Mathematica and the Wolfram Language

Author: Bruce F. Torrence
Publisher: Cambridge University Press
ISBN: 110831404X
Category : Computers
Languages : en
Pages : 550

Book Description
The unique feature of this compact student's introduction to Mathematica® and the Wolfram LanguageTM is that the order of the material closely follows a standard mathematics curriculum. As a result, it provides a brief introduction to those aspects of the Mathematica® software program most useful to students. Used as a supplementary text, it will help bridge the gap between Mathematica® and the mathematics in the course, and will serve as an excellent tutorial for former students. There have been significant changes to Mathematica® since the second edition, and all chapters have now been updated to account for new features in the software, including natural language queries and the vast stores of real-world data that are now integrated through the cloud. This third edition also includes many new exercises and a chapter on 3D printing that showcases the new computational geometry capabilities that will equip readers to print in 3D.

An Elementary Introduction to the Wolfram Language

A New Kind of Science

Author: Stephen Wolfram
Publisher:
ISBN: 9780713991161
Category : Cellular automata
Languages : en
Pages : 1197

Book Description
This work presents a series of dramatic discoveries never before made public. Starting from a collection of simple computer experiments---illustrated in the book by striking computer graphics---Wolfram shows how their unexpected results force a whole new way of looking at the operation of our universe. Wolfram uses his approach to tackle a remarkable array of fundamental problems in science: from the origin of the Second Law of thermodynamics, to the development of complexity in biology, the computational limitations of mathematics, the possibility of a truly fundamental theory of physics, and the interplay between free will and determinism.
