Mathematics by Computer
| Abstract | The most elementary way to think about Mathctrtati ca is as an enhance calculator ââ¬â a calculator that does not only numerical computation but also algebraic computation and graphics. Matltcmatica can function much like a standard calt".1a- tor. you type in a question, you get back an answer. But Mat/tctttadca ga's turthcr I ue an ordinary calculator. You can type in questions that require answers that arc longer than a calculator can handle. For example, Matltcmatictt can giv; you thc numerical value of tr to a hundred decimal places, or the exact result for a numerical calculation as complicated as the result of 3)tI0, (m Fig. 1) | |||||||||
