Download or read book Computer Simulations with Mathematica and Java written by Paul Wellin and published by Springer-Verlag New York Incorporated. This book was released on 2009-06 with total page 320 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first edition of Computer Simulations with Mathematica drew on the capabilities of Mathematica to prototype algorithms and to write code in a variety of programming styles, choosing the appropriate style for the problem at hand. Today, running very large simulations in Mathematics is quite feasible, within an order of magnitude of complied C and Fortran code. The new edition is updated and revised to accommodate all recent advances, including Mathematica 6, and use of Java programs. This is one of the first books to describe and take advantage of Mathematica 6, which contains a fantastic array of new visualization functions and dynamic interactive graphics machinery. The text is enriched by links to several web sites devoted to the topic.
