Mathematica for the Scientist and Engineer Students receive a workbook with graduated examples which walk them through the steps of putting together commands to solve progressively more sophisticated problems. The examples consist of real-life problems from the science and engineering world.
Time is included for students to work independent exercises which are then discussed.
At the end of the course, students have the basics necessary to apply Mathematica-based solution techniques to problems in their daily professional lives . The target audience is scientists and engineers. The course level is beginning and intermediate. It assumes no prior knowledge of Mathematica but does assume some experience in computer programming. Mathematica principles presented include numerical and symbolic calculations, data visualization, and principles of functional programming including rules, list manipulations, and threading functions across lists.
