Reviews / Votes
From the reviews: "The numerics volume has two chapters. ... offer a treasure trove of identities and formulas. ... take the reader on a thrilling tour of the features of Mathematica. I am impressed with the breadth and depth of Trott's coverage and his profound understanding of the strengths and limitations of Mathematica. ... includes a multiplatform DVD-ROM which allows the reader to experiment with code and view graphics in color. ... an invaluable resource and classic reference for scientists who use Mathematica in teaching or research." (Willy Hereman, SIAM Review, Vol. 49 (1), 2007)More details
