Differential Equations with Mathematica
Martha L. Abell, Georgia Southern University and James P. Braselton, Georgia Southern University
10-18-1993
Differential Equations with Mathematica presents an introduction and discussion of topics typically covered in an undergraduate course in ordinary differential equations as well as some supplementary topics such as Laplace transforms, Fourier series, and partial differential equations. It also illustrates how Mathematica is used to enhance the study of differential equations not only by eliminating the computational difficulties, but also by overcoming the visual limitations associated with the solutions of differential equations.
The book contains chapters that present differential equations and illustrate how Mathematica can be used to solve some typical problems. The text covers topics on differential equations such ... Read more

Mathematica By Example
Martha L. Abell, Georgia Southern University and James P. Braselton, Georgia Southern University
1-28-1992
Mathematica by Example presents the commands and applications of Mathematica, a system for doing mathematics on a computer. This text serves as a guide to beginning users of Mathematica and users who do not intend to take advantage of the more specialized applications of Mathematica.
The book combines symbolic manipulation, numerical mathematics, outstanding graphics, and a sophisticated programming language. It is comprised of 10 chapters. Chapter 1 gives a brief background of the software and how to install it in the computer. Chapter 2 introduces the essential commands of Mathematica. Basic operations on numbers, expressions, and functions are introduced and ... Read more
