Concise and easy to use  this book teaches by example and points out potential pitfalls along the way. The presentation starts with simple problems and discusses multiple solution paths  ranging from basic to elegant  to gradually introduce the Mathematica toolkit. More challenging and eventually cutting-edge problems follow. The authors place high value on notebook and file system organization  cross-platform capabilities  and data reading and writing. The text features an array of error messages you will likely encounter and clearly describes how to deal with those situations. While it is by no means exhaustive  this book offers a non-threatening introduction to Mathematica that will teach you the aspects needed for many practical applications  get you started on performing specific  relatively simple tasks  and enable you to build on this experience and move on to more real-world problems.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"My Store","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":67959336665141,"sku":"ByrdShop_1584884673","price":133.65,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0627\/8139\/0901\/files\/9781584884675.jpg?v=1794484640","url":"https:\/\/atxbooks.com\/products\/a-beginners-guide-to-mathematica-9781584884675","provider":"ATX Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
