The following is
a list of Mathematica™ tutorials that will be used to supplement lectures
throughout the semester. Students are encouraged to go through these tutorials
after each lecture and try their own variations of the examples.
NOTE: For those who have Mathematica™ Version
3.0 installed on
their machines, clicking any of the .nb links may enable you start up the local
Mathematica™ program automatically. If that doesn't happen, see your system
administrator or web browser documentation for adding Mathematica™ to your
browser's helper applications. Also, any files listed in the last column
must be loaded prior to opening the tutorial.
A free Mathematica™ notebook file viewer is available at http://www.wolfram.com/mathreader/.
