Mathematica= the nuts
Basically its the greaterst math program ever. I'm using it right now for my linear algebra classes and its great. It lets you spend more time learning the concepts because it does all of the tedious calculation instantly.
Its a little pricy, but if you plan on taking alot of math classes I'd say the cost is far outweighed by the benefits. The program has applications in basically every type of mathematics, and is just all around a great piece of software |

Re: Mathematica= the nuts
i agree that matlab pwns.
what about maple? the newest version (11, i think) is pretty good. i use a combo of maple and matlab depending on what i want to get done. i say matlab > maple >> mathematica. |

[/ QUOTE ] They do completely different things. Mathematica was great for my theoretical math classes, while matlab was great for my practical math classes. They both have programming functionality, but the upper hand goes to Mathematica for making things look pretty and for graphing. I wrote several math papers in Mathematica, and gave a presentation in Mathematica, which I couldn't do in Matlab. Never used maple. |

Re: Mathematica= the nuts
is it normal for matlab to take a long time to load?
