The first of a three-volume comprehensive, detailed reference to Mathematica, in print and electronic formats and compatible with the new 4.0 release (files on accompanying DVD are compatible with version 5.0, but in many universities the version remains 4.0). 1-Programming provides the reader with both a working knowledge of Mathematica in general and a detailed knowledge of key aspects of Mathematica needed to create the fastest, shortest, and most elegant implementations possible to solve problems from the natural sciences. The GuideBook gives the user a deeper understanding of Mathematica by instructive implementations, explanations, and examples from a range of disciplines at varying levels of complexity. Published in three volumes totaling 3000 pages, the GuideBook contains more than 15,000 Mathematica inputs, over 1500
