An Introduction to Programming with Mathematica R

is de-

signedtointroducethe Mathematica programminglanguage

to a wide audience. Since the last edition of this book was

published, signiﬁcant changes have occurred in Mathemat-

ica anditsuseworldwide.Keepingpacewiththesechanges,

this substantially larger, updated version includes newand

revised chapters on numerics, procedural, rule-based, and

front end programming, and gives signiﬁcant coverage to

the latest features up to, and including, version 5.1 of the

software.

Mathematica notebooks,availablefromwww.cambridge.org/

0521846781, contain examples, programs, and solutions to

exercises in the book. Additionally, material to supplement

later versions of the software will be made available. This is

theidealtextforallscientiﬁcstudents,researchers,andpro-

grammers wishing to deepen their understanding of Math-

ematica , or even those keen to program using an interac-

tive language that contains programming paradigms from

all major programming languages: procedural, functional,

recursive, rule-based, and object-oriented.
