Description
The book has the dual goal of showing how computer algebra can play an important role in applied mathematics, while introducing the reader to the computer system MACSYMA, which is designed to support such computations. In order to provide realistic applications of computer algebra, the level of the mathematical treatment must be substantially beyond a first course in calculus. Thus this book is aimed at a reader who has had at least three years of...

What do mathematicians mean when they say that an event has a 50 percent probability of occurring? How does the study of statistics apply algebraic principles to real-world events and conditions in a meaningful way? Why are data analysis and probability so closely related, and what are the practical benefits of studying them together? This video answers these questions and addresses fundamental concepts such as the law of large numbers and the notion...

Description
"Ones and Zeros explains, in lay terms, Boolean algebra, the suprisingly simple system of mathematical logic used in digital computer circuitry. Ones and Zeros follows the development of this logic system from its origins in Victorian England to its rediscovery in this century as the foundation of all modern computing machinery. Readers will learn about the interesting history of the development of symbolic logic in particular, and the often misunderstood...
