Hands-on Introduction to Mathematica

Primarily a computer program to do symbolic algebra and calculus Does Plotting, Numerical and Web stuff too. Very similar to Maple (beloved by Dr. Shenkin) What is Mathematica? Mathematica (or Maple) will help you do parts of homework problems and exam questions I’ll tutor Mathematica, but you may use Maple if you feel more comfortable with it.

Finding your Way Around Mathematica “Notebook” area “Palettes” for fancyer notation

How do I enter a calculation? Type it in like you would on a calculator Type to evaluate Make it a little more readable with fancy notation from the palettes This is a way to e something quickly A little fancier notation with help from the palettes

Mathematica Help is Your Friend Search Box

How do I do integrals in Mathematica? Mathematica Help is Your Friend A possible search term: Clickable results:

Basic structure of a Mathematica help page: Mathematica Help is Your Friend Function syntax. Usually not too helpful for beginners: Runnable examples!! Very helpful for beginners!

Derivatives in Mathematica

Fastest way to request a derivative A little fancier notation using special symbol from a palette When fefining a “symbolic function” you can use ‘ notation This doesn’t work 

Integrals in Mathematica Fastest way to type in an integral A little fancier notation using special symbol from a palette For definite integrals Pi means  means … If you like, you can get really fancy with the notation using the palettes

Differential Equations in Mathematica

Lets follow the pattern on the help page and solve one: Diff eq we want to solve Extra initial conditions specified to get a specific solution Solution: y(x) = 2 e 3x

Differential Equations in Mathematica Since this is a computer, we can ask it to do real fancy stuff too :

Basic Plotting in Mathematica
